Source files for Capacitor_THT: CP_Radial #246

Open martinjaeger opened 5 years ago

Does anyone know where I can find the source files for radial capacitor models (e.g. electrolytic caps)? I'd like to generate a 3D model that fits the actual height, but could not find the source files here.

Some research in the old kicad-library repo brought me to this PR, where the models were added. But it doesn't contain the CadQuery scripts used by @Shackmeister, as far as I can see.

Right here :) https://github.com/easyw/kicad-3d-models-in-freecad/tree/master/cadquery/FCAD_script_generator/CP_Radial_THT

Nice, thanks a lot.

Shouldn't we add the scripts to this repo? Or is the easyw/kicad-3d-models-in-freecad one also a well-known repo where scripts for 3D models are stored? I'm not so familiar with the process of generating the 3D models.
