I have just stabbed myself. In the ear. With a (luckily very blunt) Stanley knife.

It hurts, but not much blood drawn.

So, what have I learned from this?

Put the knife down, before trying to replace the in-ear headphone bud that's just fallen out . . .

Sorry, but I couldn't help laughing when I read this! I reckon I must have come close to this over the years at work with scalpels, but have been lucky so far, famous last words. Glad you're OK though.

Yeah, after the initial horror at my stupidity, it was quite funny. Luckily the knife was very blunt.

This weekend I'll be getting the hot glue gun out for the first time in years. And yes, I do remember that hot glue is HOT ;).

What am I doing with a blunt knife, corrugated card & hot glue?

Having chuckled at the idea of someone adjusting earphones with a craft knife in hand yesterday ... I superglued the side of my hand to my painting table about an hour ago.

A really interesting way of quickly making a dungeon  :-bd

Great that he's made the texture PDFs available for free =D> =D>

I wonder if you could glue some strips of the wall texture to the sides of the tiles and doors to hide the cardboard corrugations :-\

Perhaps cut the strips of wall texture wide enough so you can fold it into a U shape and glue it to the top and bottom of the tile (front and back of the door) :-\

I agree :D.....I'd have also said it's a lot more painful to cut yourself with a blunt blade, than a sharp one.....Not that I'm speaking from experience, you understand. :^o

(Mind you, the sharp one goes in deeper.) X_X
