This is a recreation o' me original 29mm Thug. All t' dimensions are t' same as t' 29mm version, ya bilge rat, but with a 38mm MMT. I also used t' orginal nosecone that had t' shoulder crushed in t' lawn dart that destroyed t' original. I replaced t' shoulder with a coupler tube and mounted an U-bolt in t' tip o' t' nose cone.
T' paint scheme be t' same as t' 29mm Thug with t' Packers theme. Instead o' home made waterslide decals, this time I made me own vinyl decals with ink jet printer vinyl decal sheets. That worked great.
