'''1.''' Be careful with your fingers. Your body can hold a good amount of static electric charge. Under some circumstances that charge can be drained through some of the components that you are handling and this could break the component. Try to hold the PCBs by the borders and discharge your body frequently touching some "ground" with your fingers.
'''1.''' Be careful to protect the components from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic-sensitive_device electrostatic discharge]. This is most critical for the ICs and the diodes.
