# Cool!
Only concern - how resilient would it be to eg being carried round in a pocket or something?

Maybe you could do it in latex or something like that if a home kit exists for that sort of thing.

And of course latex would make it all the better when you inevitably get round to doing one with your genitals.

# What tribs should do now is remove his actual thumb, and replace it with a female USB connector
Then he can keep his thumb drive on his, errm, thumb!

# Actually
The monofilament-whip-in-the-thumb is a traditional feature in cyberpunk books and RPGs, not just Johnny Mnemonic. And that film would be a lot better if it wasn't Keantactu Reeves.

# Duuuude
I remember 2 scenes from JM (actually saw it at cinema). The whip scene, and Reeves jerking his head back in shock in a silent "Whooooa!". I giggled at both.

# Good old that bloke.
That bloke who wasn't Keanu Reeves from Bill & Ted should meet up with that bloke who wasn't Mike Myers from Wayne’s World.

# It's stone plaster
Which is much tougher than plaster of paris. Still gives excellent detail reproduction (I'll have to smooth off my thumb-print before giving the item away) and takes about 30-40 mins to set. It can still be scratched, with difficulty. A good quality paint should keep it scuff-free.

Latex is doable. Although it would take a hell of a lot of the stuff to cast my danglies. Oh yeah.
