This may have been mentioned already, but the tip of a mechanical pencil might also work instead of a hypo needle - I thought of this while looking at the metal tip of my 0.9mm pencil. Heh. Also available in .7 and .5mm, with assorted extra-comfortable grips, and in multiple colors, and so on. And CHEAP. That's brilliant!
