Drill a hole in a rod, mill in a helix, then heat treat? Seems easy, but I'm sure it has its quirks.

Most of the time it is just a hole with no other features needed. The amount of springback and spacing is some science and some art.

It makes me happy to see a LMGTFY link. I'm a bit surprised to see that they have their own "search engine" now (that they definitely skim from google). It used to show a google search, and bring you to google. Ah the good ol' days of replying to people on forums who ask questions without doing any looking up on their own.
I love the fact that the first non-ad result is literally machinedsprings.com haha.
