How do I draw a non standard thread - I need M8 x 1.5 ?

I can see the standard holes with a selection of common size threads available, but I need this less common size for a replacement part I intend to 3D print.

Hi Neil. Thanks for your help with that one; I managed to produce the required thread. I notice that the feature is in beta which might account for the fact that I had a few crashes along the the way however. Anyway on to the next challenge :-)
