When I was about 12 years old my cousin and I or shooting BB guns at a corner post with a can on it. I took a ricochet direct in the tooth. Try to repair it but it didn't work so good so they put a silver cap on it. One of my wood hippie gearhead buddies Richard started calling me silver tooth for years. Then I got a porcelain cap put on and he said, you just be called tooth now. It's been that way for 34 years or more.Soooo, how did you get the nickname Tooth???? If you don't mind telling. I 'll tell you why my nickname is heddrik if you want to hear it.
