FINGER CONDOMS
For your handy needs.
For your handy needs.
I work at The Brodsky Center with the papermaking studio which involves constantly getting soaked (we wear rainboots and floor-length vinyl aprons when we work). I was burning paper edges today and my clumsy hands got burnt on a Dremel burner tool (seriously hot shit), NOT something you ever want to do. But I had to keep working for the next few hours, and Lisa at the center introduced me to the amazing FINGER COTS (or finger condoms, more appropriately). You can find them at drugstores. I never like to advertise products, but this is seriously brilliant for dealing with burns/cuts on your fingers if you need to keep doing something involving lots of water and still want to be able to have a good amount of control with your hands (papermaking, photo darkroom, screenprinting, dishes, shower, rowboatin', canoin', kayakin', water balloon fight, rainstorm thumb wars...).
