Summary: Be able to create true thread holes option in the hole dialog

Description: Make thread feature a true thread instead of a pretty picture. Threads are needed when rapid prototyping.

How Used: Whe rapid prototyping parts with threaded features. It would be faster to just send them to the printer instead of going back and creating real threaded feature. It takes a considerable amount of time to create a real thread of different size and pitches.

Feature Affinity: Part Modeling
