    Look to the medical trades if you suffer from fat-hands or manual clumsiness.

    Forceps
    Hemostats
    Scalpels
    Iris scissors
    Suturing needle holder
    Surgeon's pliers

    Surgeons need to do precise tiny work with normal size hands. Their tools have evolved over centuries to address this need.

    Small manipulators can be custom cut from bamboo skewers. I make tiny disposable spatulae for applying precise amounts of glue and grease by whittling the end to a flat. Make a forked end to hold tiny screws while starting them. Also good for electrical work since they're non-conductive.
