I did an image of a screwdriver and a screw, the threads did require a
bit more thought than I first expected. I tried a few ways, I think what
ended up working was a "V" shape with an offset center spun. You could
then scale down the end and finish with a cone tip.
I know this is not real detailed, I did it some time ago. :)
