How to add threads to two ends of a pipe in fusion 360

So the middle of the pipe doesn't have thread only the two ends have.

Should I model half of the pipe and then rotate(copy/move) it to get the right direction of the threads?

Is there a good way to do this?

Thanks!

~~Mirror the thread feature would be easiest. (Unless they change direction)~~😁 Model half the pipe, then copy and use joint to align.

Even easier, just add threads to both ends😃

p.s. Uncheck Full Length, check Remember size.

Sorry for asking a dumb question. I was just somehow stuck in the thread adding a problem that day. Now I think of it, it is just really dumb. Thanks for answering me.
