where to find 3d files for connectors?

(OP)
I'm looking for a USB Vertical connector, type A.  Anyone have some good links?

Thanks.

RE: where to find 3d files for connectors?

I know 3dcontentcentral has a type B.
Molex makes 3d models available.
Tyco makes 3d models available.
Hirose makes 3d models available.
Samtec makes 3d models available.
...
just to name a few. Use google from here and search their sites or link to them through Digikey if you want to find stuff that is currently available or in stock.

Thanks, yeah I had already tried Molex but they didn't have any Vertical Type A's.  

When I checked Tyco, they did have Type A's but no models for these yet.

Hirose didn't have any USB Vertical's, ala Molex.

Samtec, yes! woot!

RE: where to find 3d files for connectors?

If you email the companies with a nice letter, sometimes they will send you a model. I have done it.
