All of the parts are COTS parts, save for a few custom gussets.
One of the Ri3D "rules" was to not release CAD drawings full CAD models.

According to that site:

*We will be updating this page, more info will be going up this weekend* *Kits will be available for purchase, please email support@wcproducts.net for more info*
I would regard their intent as completely different to Ri3D (even the AndyMark team, who use a lot of AM products).

That's not a criticism of WCP or this product, but I think it would be unfair to the Ri3D teams to group the two together. This is clearly one step beyond what they do, and what the KOP does.

EDITED: Apparently totally wrong, struck through comment
