This is a bit of a gray area for physical objects, but likely applies to distribution of modified or unmodified STL, STEP, etc. files at a minimum. The easiest way to satisfy the GPLv3 in either situation is to provide a link to the source code (either the unmodified mainline project, or your copy, with modifications listed in a "prominent notice"); something like the below should suffice in either electronic or printed form: > This arcade stick is part of the Buildable Stick System, version X.Y.Z; the source code to this program is available > under the terms of the GNU General Public License, at [LINK].
