About this Gig
KiCad free STEP export is fine until you open it in enclosure CAD and half the connectors are missing or wrong. The USB-C that is not there. The generic body that is 2 mm taller than the real part. That is how you print the shell twice. I have done that reprint dance on my own hardware.
Send a KiCad project (or gerbers plus BOM). You get a populated STEP and STL with every component accounted for, plus a model provenance table for where each model came from.
Vendor STEP when the manufacturer publishes one. Mechanically critical parts modeled from the engineering drawing when needed. Generics only for non-critical passives, and the table says so. Nothing silently omitted. If a part cannot be accurate, you know which and why before you build around it.
Same brain as the PCB review gig: mechanical surprises are half of what kills first articles.

FAQ
What happens when a component has no 3D model anywhere?
If it's mechanically critical (connectors, switches, anything an enclosure touches) I model it from the engineering drawing: body, pins, mating face, envelope-accurate. Generic stand-ins only for non-critical passives. Either way the provenance table flags it - never a silent omission.
What files do I get, and what do you need from me?
You get STEP + STL aligned to the board origin, plus the provenance table (PDF). I need your KiCad project preferred - gerbers + BOM also work, message me first. For drawing-modeled parts I need the part numbers so I can pull the drawings.
Do you use AI tools?
Yes, openly: an AI-assisted pipeline does the model sourcing and placement, and I personally verify critical geometry against the vendor drawings before delivery. The provenance table shows exactly what was verified and how.
