Today I set up the filament printer to print my son something for part of his Christmas present.
Self levelling bed and faster print speeds was a very nice bonus. Okay I printed at 0.2mm but instead of one bit and an IOU I got the whole thing done… even with a power outage and the aforementioned wound!
So I decided to use tree supports on my first attempt… one of them got knocked off somehow. So I stopped the print and foolishly decided to use a blade instead of a scraper to remove the supports that did adhere really well. Somehow my blade hand actually came back towards me, maybe a ricochet off a support, not actually sure… long story short…
What you can’t see in the photo is the fact it is straight across to the other side of my thumb too… I tried slicing that bit off!
So guess who felt like a right pillock!

That hurts! (The price we must pay for our “vices”, Isn’t?)…
In a different order of things: Merry Christmas! ¡Feliz Navidad!

Ouch- that one looks painful. Did you seal it with superglue?
Cheers,
Pete.

I did consider it but held numerous kitchen roll pads on and applied pressure at the knuckle until it eased off enough to apply a dressing.

I highly recommend some of these – https://www.amazon.com.au/Resistant-Protector-Protectors-Protection-Sculpture/dp/B0937LZK25/
I bought some after my last self-infliucted wound and they really help a LOT!
