This model is an articulated version of the logo of a company called Critical Path Software (CPS). CPS was located in Portland Oregon, and was acquired by eBay. I was hired at eBay in the Portland office about a year after the acquisition. The Portland eBay office still has a CPS logo on the wall, to recognize the origin. The office culture was heavily influenced by CPS, and retained that culture for many years despite the corporate influences. The first thing I saw about the office was a picture of a whiteboard with the office “rules” written out. Rule #1 was “Wear a heavy metal t-shirt on Fridays.” I worked there for 12 years before finally being laid off earlier this year (2024). I decided to upload this model to commemorate my career there, and my love of the people and culture that took me in and helped me create an amazing career path.

Print settings: pretty much standard, .2 layer height and whatever infill you like. Scaling down too much might make my simple links a bit fragile. I may revise the model at some point to improve it.

Can probably get a keychain through the tail, or add a jump ring in order to connect one. I'll print one soon and test that, and update with any new tips.
