KiCAD continues to look fantastic!

I was hesitant to learn Wings3D, but pretty sure there would be ROI.

See the example above.
I am creating a footprint with PcbNew for a SSR, and a 3D model with Wings3D.  
Finally got Wings3D working pretty well.

Reference:   Sharp PR26MF11NIPF

With 3D viewer, a mistake is found in the footprint pad design (pads were too 
wide).

After fixing the footprint, the pads look too close.  A modification will 
improve soldering.

Many times modeling pays big when doing engineering work.  Here looks like 
another example that was made possible by KiCAD.

have fun,
