I have my pair of spring thumbs- kind of like if you have to get a sun burn before tanning, the first step in developing those gardening calluses.
Spring Thumbs- the unfortunate rubbing away of skin after hours-long of welding a tool, most likely with a long hard handle, gripping tightly while maintaining​ a sustained rigorous repetitive motion until the task has reached satisfactory completion.
