Since I work on a computer keyboard during the day, and often have Lego
building sessions that last eight or ten hours, I can totally identify with you.
My best suggestion: Ice down your hands after long building sessions. I
just put some ice and water in an empty Lego bucket, and plunge my hands in
until I can't stand the cold any longer. Pull them out for a few minutes to
warm up a bit, then right back into the ice water. Repeat as long as
necessary...
It's no fun trying to build when your hands hurt, so take good care of them!
