Sure it's not as bad as a lot here, but man is that tip cooked...

I was sculpting legs of a crab and rotated my piece to get a crab leg out of the flame and was listening to music... middle finger got it (the irony!)! Smells burned too, probably mostly the burnt-nail smell, but it's getting all hard at the tip. It's hurting, but I'm posting this first, then will go back to cold-watering it and maybe back to the torch if I put a band-aid on it or something to keep the heat away... Here ya go:
I just joined the burn club too - SheperdCreations, mine looks identical to yours!!! I went to pick up a stringer and put my finger right in the flame.
