// Module: trapezoidal_threaded_rod()
// Description:
// Constructs a generic trapezoidal threaded screw rod. This method makes
// much smoother threads than the naive linear_extrude method.
// For metric trapezoidal threads, use thread_angle=15 and thread_depth=pitch/2.
// For ACME threads, use thread_angle=14.5 and thread_depth=pitch/2.
// For square threads, use thread_angle=0 and thread_depth=pitch/2.
// For normal UTS or ISO screw threads, use the `threaded_rod()` module instead to get the correct thread profile.
// Arguments:
// d = Outer diameter of threaded rod.
// l = Length of threaded rod.
// pitch = Length between threads.
// thread_depth = Depth of the threads. Default=pitch/2
// thread_angle = The pressure angle profile angle of the threads. Default = 14.5 degree ACME profile.
// left_handed = If true, create left-handed threads. Default = false
// bevel = if true, bevel the thread ends. Default: true
// starts = The number of lead starts. Default = 1
// internal = If true, make this a mask for making internal threads.
// profile = The shape of a thread, if not a symmetric trapezoidal form. Given as a 2D path, where X is between -1/2 and 1/2, representing the pitch distance, and Y is 0 for the peak, and `-depth/pitch` for the valleys. The segment between the end of one thread profile and the start of the next is automatic, so the start and end coordinates should not both be at the same Y at X = ±1/2. This path is scaled up by the pitch size in both dimensions when making the final threading. This overrides the `thread_angle` and `thread_depth` options.
// center = If given, overrides `anchor`. A true value sets `anchor=CENTER`, false sets `anchor=UP`.
// anchor = Translate so anchor point is at origin (0,0,0). See [anchor](attachments.scad#anchor). Default: `CENTER`
// spin = Rotate this many degrees around the Z axis after anchor. See [spin](attachments.scad#spin). Default: `0`
// orient = Vector to rotate top towards, after spin. See [orient](attachments.scad#orient). Default: `UP`
// $slop = The printer-specific slop value to make parts fit just right.
// Examples(Med):
// trapezoidal_threaded_rod(d=10, l=40, pitch=2, thread_angle=15, $fn=32);
// trapezoidal_threaded_rod(d=3/8*25.4, l=20, pitch=1/8*25.4, thread_angle=29, $fn=32);
