The base can be printed in normal orientation, but the wing has to printed on a specific side, to minimize supports and to achieve a good finished thin surface.
Model details
Aerial screw model has been fully developed with OPENSCAD.
The base is quite standard, with a some cylinders and cubes.
The wing has been generated with a for-cycle spanning 540 degrees, rotating, scaling and translating properly a simple cube. The resulting solid is far from being smooth, because of several very small vertexes and edges due to intersecting cubes, but is enough for a decent printed part.
