A coiled thred

I need something to create a thread on a coil to model a continuous fin on a coiled tube. Any ideas?

Create a coil of a square or triangular cross section. Draw the profile you want on the end of the coil. Create a sweep of your profile using one of the coil edges as the path and at least one other as a guide rail.
