How To Create Sweeping Teeth For Threaded Insert In Fusion 360?

I am trying to figure out how to create these sweeping, toothed, ridges (not sure the name) for the attached brass insert part I am redesigning. 

 

Is anyone able to point to a YouTube video creating something like this and/or create a short Autodesk clip of how this would be done?

Simple example attached using Sweep with a twist.  You need to be a bit careful adjusting the parameters but this should give you a starting point.
