Tiger Danny

You guys know I don't build commercially and I don't have a duplicator so every plug is a 1 off.

Here's a Tiger Danny I just built for a friend.

5 different paint colors plus the finish. Weighs 2.75 oz

From the edge of the metal lip to the end of the plug itself, 6.25".

Thank you for the compliment!
