that is a great idea. i don't know if there isnt already something on instructables like this, but something related to this would be a sugru finger protector. sort of like o thimble, but a lot more moldable. it would be great for anything, because i find that i am constantly getting stingy little cuts on my fingers from not being carefu enough with my hobby knife.

Nice idea, I find xacto knives can get uncomfortable to use if you are doing a lot of detailed work.

You can also use one of those Pencil Grips. You get several of them in a pack and they are normally under two bucks.

How much sugru did you use? I just bought some and there's 6 5 gram packets. 1 packet? More? Thanks!
