Conical Helical Cuts on a threaded part

In a recent work project, I sought a method for creating a unique shape - "a conical helix pattern with extruded cuts on a threaded part". Initially, it appeared straightforward, but complexities soon emerged. The cuts had to be tangential to the threads and the threading was conical. My attempts involved numerous 3D sketches, auxiliary planes, and solid bodies. While the concept is intricate, adapting it for manufacturing could prove challenging. This is a draft of my solution, which might benefit others facing similar issues. Despite using SolidWorks, I believe there's room for improvement in handling helical parts or my understanding of the software.
