Why does nobody talk about stretching your hands before tiny repairs?
I was replacing a micro USB port yesterday and my fingers got all stiff. Could barely hold the tweezers after an hour. Now I spend two minutes flexing my hands before I touch anything small. It keeps my grip steady and stops the ache from setting in too fast.

Try wrist circles too, they help more than just finger stretches.

From what I've seen in model building forums, a lot of folks actually recommend hand exercises before detailed work. Two minutes of flexing is good, but I add wrist rolls to prevent cramping. Your mileage may vary, but it makes a difference for me.
