How to make female thread from male?

[877cms]

Pretty simple concept really but I do not know much about how to measure a thread, pitch etc...

I would like to create a 3d printed part that screws onto this pole threaded end.

The blue part is 18.4mm overall diameter, 19.5mm high from where it joins the steel to the flat top.

~15.3mm diameter inside the threaded area. The threads are ~3mm thick and there is ~2.2mm of vertical gap between threads. So that make ~5-5.2 pitch? As for the thread angle I'm not sure, I measure ~5 degrees from horizontal.

Any tips on where to measure, what is important etc.. would be much appreciated!

Position your male thread component or body inside position in your component or body you want the female thread and then use the Combine tool.  Make sure you check the box in the Combine dialog box to keep tool.  If you need a demonstration, attach your model.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a forum post to attach it.

@jhackney1972 thank you, but I do not have the model for the male threaded part shown. It is a 'real world' part that I want to make a part to interface with.

(Updated my first post with some measurements now).

Hello, to determine the exact mass, please take a normal scan and then measure the diameter.
to align / calibrate a line of exact length of 100mm all other dimensions can be measured out.
the exact view from above is particularly important

Your image is at too much of an angle - can’t see the root of the thread.

Post another picture taken while looking directly at the side of the thread.

@mango.freund @TheCADWhisperer  thank you both, I am attaching some more photos at the angles requested with caliper ruler for scale. The side view photos are on opposite side to each other.

Hi, it measures 18.4 on the external of the thread.

Thanks very much for the f3d, looks complicated for my level of knowledge!  

But I can see what you did and it's very good!
