After the creating the helical curve, sketch a rectangle on a plane normal to the helix, preferably at the starting point. Sweep this rectangle along the curve and you will have your screw thread surface. If you need advanced help on sweeping zero thickness surfaces leave a comment.

I highly recommend this tutorial to help get the basic skills in learning to do any 3d model in Solidworks ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Solidworks is an engineering tool used for computer-aided designs(CAD) and computer-aided engineering(CAE). Its one of the biggest and useful CAD tools to have and learn. These sets of tutorial videos is to help you learn SolidWorks from a novice/beginner stage to an expert. The helix and coil sweep is on of the tools that is not so widely known or used but one of the easiest shortcut to making certain 3d models. Learning this feature will greatly help you in some difficult and unique models. Unlike other Solidworks models, 3d parts in this form are almost impossible to make without using this tool. Hope this tutorial is a good aide in your studies ENJOY!!! **************************************************************************************

Solidworks is an engineering tool used for computer-aided designs(CAD) and computer-aided engineering(CAE). Its one of the biggest and useful CAD tools to have and learn. These sets of tutorial videos is to help you learn SolidWorks from a novice/beginner stage to an expert. Revolve is a method of defining three-dimensional geometry by revolving a sketched section around a centerline. Use the Revolve tool to create a solid or surface feature, and to add or remove material. You can create the following revolve types: • Revolved protrusion—Solid, Thickened • Revolved cut—Solid, Thickened • Revolved surface • Revolved surface trim—Regular, Thickened A revolved section requires an axis of revolution that can be created either with the section or defined by selecting model geometry Sweep features are defined by using custom 2D cross-section (or face) moved along a pre-set path to create a 3D shape or surface. With the sweep method, the user defines a 2-D or 3-D guide curve, in addition to creating the cross-s

Hello the reason that your sketches wont let you create a pad is because the you have a point in your sketch, simply make this point into a constrution point and you will be ready to pad (See Images)

Solidworks is an engineering tool used for computer-aided designs(CAD) and computer-aided engineering(CAE). Its one of the biggest and useful CAD tools to have and learn. These sets of tutorial videos is to help you learn SolidWorks from a novice/beginner stage to an expert. The swept feature/tool in Solidworks is a really cool tool that allows you to make a 3d protrusion of a model along a path be it closed or open. This feature is one of the most useful ones to learn in Solidworks.

Solidworks is an engineering tool used for computer-aided designs(CAD) and computer-aided engineering(CAE). Its one of the biggest and useful CAD tools to have and learn. These sets of tutorial videos is to help you learn SolidWorks from a novice/beginner stage to an expert. The swept cut feature allows you to make a cut using a closed loop sketch along any desired path of the user. You will need two basic things for the sweep cut function to work; a closed loop sketch which forms the shape or profile of the cut and an opened/closed sketch which will be the path along which the profile sketch will sweep and cut.
