Hi all I this is a Scalpel I got a while back which works great but the only down side is that after cutting and weeding out a ruddy great Skull I always ended up with a completely numb index finger for days thank's to the probs with my back,,,It's along story
Well my better half Jeanette got some Fimo from ebay and I thought I could use in on my Scalpel for a custom made and fitting Scalpel so I spent a good hour or so slowly adding Fimo and getting it to fit my grip and index finger perfectly. I also made sure it fit my grip if I were to hold it a little further down the handle incase I needed to get a little more pressure through the blade for something a little thicker than normal and I ended up with my Black Mamba haha sorry I must of seen Mega Mind with the kids way too many times haha
It's not rocket science but it worked a hell of a lot better than I thought it would it fits perfectly around my finger and thumb and there;s absolutely no pressure issues with ones bell ringer it's not like Simon Murray's gold Scalpel which I'd love to have by the way but it wouldn't be much good rally as I'd just cover it with Fimo haha
Oh and the blades are removed just as easily as on the normal bog standard ones It's just an idea I had and thought I'd pass it on as it work amazingly well for me and also if after heat setting it in the oven and it's a little too smooth in the hand you can easily give it a light rub over with some 150 paper
Hope it helps
