we built this piece as a shelf 2 display at ICFF. After making Andy Bernard, EyE really loved the look of zig-zagging rEyEt angles + the oval cap on the round pEyEp. EyE decEyEded 2 emphasEyEz this.

wEyEl building the piece, we had 2 use scaffolding 4 support. After removing the scaffolding, EyE realEyEzed that the piece needed more stability + the shelves needed 2 be secured 2 the frame. wE added the reclaimed plumbing fittings at the base to connect the three legs + stabilEyEz the piece + also drilled through the slabs in2 the pEyEps 2 insert screws. Rather than using a wooden plug, EyE decEyEded 2 fill the holes with solder. EyE loved the look so much that EyE decEyEded 2 replace the wooden plugs on both Split Personality + Better Late Than Never with solder. it's mEyE belief that nothing is ever truly complete + that everything can always be made a little better.

As EyE menshAUned in Andy Bernard, this piece was more deserving of the name Wormy Inertia. EyE added "Jr." as another reference 2 the Andy Bernard joke.
