    As a DM I would love for shenanigans like that to happen more often. Winging it is one of the things a DM needs to be able to do, and being asked to leave a campaign for it sounds a little... sad.

    An earlier party I played with did have a goblin tinker, though! He was brilliant, and loved explosives. At one point he was riding on the back of our Ranger's bear and wanted to make an explosive.
    "Sure, go ahead." I said, and asked him to describe how he would do it.
    He went on to tell us how he would take gun powder, pour it into a cloth sack, and light it. "Are you very sure?" I asked the player - which was a clear sign that he might have needed to rethink his strategy. He said yes, with a big smile, and I answered "Boom!"

    He went to blow his hand off, and burn the bear badly. While initially it looked bad, it turned out he had wanted an excuse to remove one of his hands anyways, because he wanted to attach his rifle as a prosthetic.
