written 2/17/2016

This tutorial is meant purely as a guide. Feel free to make your tag unique by using your own choice of tube and scrap kit. If you would like your tag to look just like mine then use the same supplies that I have used. Any resemblance to any other tutorial or tag is purely coincidental.
