3d is already-existing ${KISYS3DMOD}/Package_SO.3dshapes/Vishay_PowerPAK_SO-8.wrl, which this footprint is specifically designed for.

This footprint almost exactly implements the footprint described in AND9137; the only difference is that this footprint has a .175mm radius on the top 4 pins because some guy on stackexchange suggested it's a good idea.

Another point of note is the pin numbering. Instead of numbering this as 1-8, I've numbered it 1-3. All packages that this claims compatibility for have source=1-3, gate=4, and drain=5-8. If you'd like to confirm compatibility yourself, here are the datasheets:

Labeling the pins like this makes it possible to use the generic mosfet symbols in schematics.

The library conventions were carefully read and followed.
