The name....I worked as a lead shift mechanic in a plastic plant years ago and the management gave us BIG clear plastic drink cups complete with lids and handles so we could have water on the floor.They advised us to put our names on them for obvious reasons.So I put my name on mine as instructed Tony T.Somebody came by and put Big T and then sweet T,Green T,T rex and so on anything they could think of that had a T in it and one day someone put Sweet Daddy T and it stuck lucky me,lol.Now fast forward bunch of years when I started this shall we say project,my brother said it needed a name,after all the shows on tv name there projects and he said we'll call it Sweet Daddy T.He wants to airbrush it on there some where, ahhh NO.So that's it.I lead such an exciting life.
