    горит (кипит) в руках (чьих, у кого)
    разг., одобр.

    Утром я встаю как встрёпанный, иду на завод, и любая работа у меня в руках кипит и спорится! (М. Шолохов, Судьба человека) — In the morning I'd be out of bed like a shot and off to the factory, and any job I laid hands on would go like clockwork.

    - Ртуть-парень, и работа в руках горит, и всё из-под земли достанет..! (Л. Соболев, Зелёный луч) — 'He's pure quicksilver - the work just melts in his hands and he's a wonder at gettinng hold of things.'

    Прилип этот немец как банный лист к Генке. Здоровяк Генка, в руках у него всё горит. "О-о! - кричит. - Гут арбайтер!" (В. Астафьев, Дикий лук) — This German attached himself to Gennadi like a leech. Gennadi was a strong man worked with despatch. The German said: 'Oh, gut Arbeiter.'

    Задача перед Владом стояла нехитрая: отвлечь внимание старухи на себя, пока напарник будет шарить под её прилавком... Всё разыгрывалось, словно по нотам (Максимов 2). The job that Vlad had to do was not difficult: to distract the old woman's attention while his partner rifled her supplies under the counter....The operation went like clockwork (2a).
    У меня отлегло от души: всё понятно, конечно, Сергей страдает, но как ему приятно его страдание, как это всё отлично идёт, словно по нотам (Аксёнов 1). My heart lifted. I saw it all: sure Sergei was suffering, but how he was enjoying his suffering, how smoothly things were going, without a hitch (1a).
