Hello everybody!

I'm trying to make a custom thread (a PG11 nut, nothing special) but I've spent hours to get nothing.

See this strange shape when use the sweep tool whit a previous coil path:

Why is the shape tilting?

Of course, I've seen many antiparalell errors before.

 

I've followed this tutorial but I don't know why doesn't work for me:

All help and tips are welcome!
