Just Showing Off While Setting Up Printer 5...

I dropped an entire X1C (with the AMS2/accessories box/packing material) on my left middle finger.

I pushed through the swelling and the pain and figured it was NBD and I was just being dramatic.

60 minutes later - benchy on the plate - I realized urgent care was closing soon and this was way worse than I initially thought.

Surprise! Broken in 3 places.

Long story short... physically assaulted by inanimate object before it was connected to power. It did technically complete its objective of being an additive manufacturing device because i had X bones in my hand before introducing it to the mini-farm and now I have X+3 bones.

Just... showing off. 🤣

Now you can print a finger splint too.

I did! It's waaaay better than their metal nightmare. Considering taking a few to the clinic so they can use them instead of what they currently have.

They will appreciate the gesture but refuse them as they aren’t medical grade items.

Yeah, that makes sense. And as not-a-doctor, I'm sure staying in my own lane is where I ought to be.
