Micromanagement: How to manage small parts during assembly
Share
Small Parts, Big Challenges! When you set out to assemble a model, the smallest parts are often the most likely to go missing and cause confusion. However, with a "micromanagement" approach, you can control these tiny parts surprisingly effectively. Here are a few tips:
1. Choose a clean workspace with good lighting and clear the desktop of clutter. A white tablecloth can help you see small parts clearly.
2. Only take the parts you need to use. Remove parts one by one from the package rather than pouring them all out. This reduces the chance of parts scattering and confusion.
3. Use small containers to store parts that are not in use temporarily. Do not place it directly on the table. Small saucers or empty medicine bottles are good options.
4. Use small clips or magnets to hold small parts, especially when you need to move or lift them.

5. Stay focused and patient. When you feel frustrated or distracted, stretch your body or look away from your work to refocus.
6. Finally, good lighting and vision can help you see small parts clearly during assembly. If necessary, use a magnifying glass.
With practice, you'll find that these techniques can help you "micromanage" small parts and complete model assembly happily and productively. Try it yourself and experience the effect!
