Maybe a tool in which you can also change the angle of the thread or extend the thread would making threads a lot easier/customizable. And what would also top it off is a tool where you can simulate how it all works to check its fittings etc. Perhaps also a starting point, thread length, extrude/cut thread. Thanks!

Awesome, and please create a simple tolerance adjustment so we can really fine tune tolerances for 3D printing.
