How do you pull in multiple 3D models to create a board stack in KiCad? This video shows you how to use schematic symbols, placeholder footprints and either generated or found 3D models in your final board rendering. This method will help you to create nicely rendered photos for promotion, or more importantly, to detect problems before you send a board out to be manufactured.
