A plaster (band-aid for you americans out there) only for finger wrappage, with a thin cord running through the middle (or maybe one through each side) that can be tightened so that your plaster will not constantly need to be undone/redone tighter every time it comes a bit loose. And that's my idea.
Roll on the fishbones!
No seriously, give me a croissant.

Yeah, i think this is an excellent idea. Well done, stranger.
Hehehe... |

give you a + for that piece of silliness even though I loathe plasters and all I keep thinking about are tourniquets. |

Put a piece of shrink tubing over the offending plaster. Then hold finger over a candle until the tubing shrinks. Band aid will never loosen again. (Keep glass with icewater at hand.) |

Around here, we use drywall. |

No, not *maybe* one through each side, *definitely*! Through the middle is bad. |
|
| |
Never heard "plaster" before though. Nooo, I've been ignorantly using an americanism all these years! |
|

band-aids for scrapes an' such, duct tape for open cuts. |
|
| |
So if the injury starts jetting blood, just yank on the cord and you’ve got an instant tourniquet. |

Plaster is an Irishism, [Robobust], so if you aren't Irish, maybe you are using the acceptable term. |

And earlier "...from Old English, medical dressing, and from Old French plastre, cementing material...", therefore the name plaster of Paris. |
