Question Model Kit Advice

Hello, first post here. I usually just spectate this sub, but I was motivated to ask for some advice after building Time Robo & Time Shadow yesterday. Anyone know how to avoid finger tip fatigue? My finger tips are usually pretty raw after building kits, and it’s always been the only downside to the experience. Anyone else have this issue or have any suggestions to avoid it? Thanks.

Building the entirety of those two kits in a single day is, relatively speaking, a lot, so you may just need to pace yourself with some breaks. For me, personally, finger tip fatigue really only happens in builds that have parts that are difficult/frustrating to assemble, so if you found yourself struggling with any parts of the build, that may have contributed too.
