Great, thanks!

I'll write a generic screw() generator, that takes numeric arguments, 
once I see how you did it with static footprints.

We could have metric/imperial specialized wrappers around that. Best 
would be to set up formulas: I'm still not sure storing big tables in 
footprint generators is better than having a table of static footprints. I 
think we have a chance to be able to fit formulas with some rounding.

Could you please link a html or plain text export next time?
