Recently my Dad was working on his giant lathe and managed to rip the top 1/3rd of his pinkie on his left hand off. He's been going to the Dr. a lot getting it dressed and doing some PT... I'm trying to think of cool things he could potentially have installed in place of the end of his pinkie:
1. measuring tape
2. ball point pen
3. usb storage device
4. laser pointer
5. prosthetic cover with toothpick holder underneath
6. flashlight
7. eyeglass repair kit
8. first aid kit
9. antibacterial hand cleaner dispenser
10. flag holder
11. bbq temperature probe
12. mini squeegee

I feel like I'm on the right track, but just can't flesh this out anymore. Har har.

Do you have any creative and or good ideas? Thanks in advance.

how about one of those tiny, personal fans for hot days? chad suggests a clear version of his old fingertip.

well, hope these help. I'd have a really difficult time deciding which of these I wanted. Good luck to your dad.
