A screw motion surface in \(\widetilde{\mathrm{PSL}}_2(\mathbb{R},\tau)\) is a minimal or constant mean curvature surface invariant by helicoidal isometries. In this paper the author gives a variety of very explicit examples for screw motion surfaces. The examples are orbits of generating curves under a 1-parameter family of helicoidal isometries.
