When asked about his stem logo, Paul responds, "I'll have to think about the taxidermy eye. I honestly can't recall right now how that came about", and then continues with, "I wanted a grading system that was somewhat visible from a distance, so the eyes were a way to do that. They were also very easy, just a small touch to the stem with a 1/8" bit and I was ready to epoxy in the eye. I think I used the eyes on tampers before the pipes came along and it was just a natural move to incorporate them into the identity. I've always liked the weird eyeball jewelry when I was a kid, so working with taxidermy eyes was a given once my tampers got strange. I really don't recall any particular moment when I decided to use the eyes for stem logos".
