It comes with the needle in the kit - I find it handy to use a floss threader when threading needles for my projects

She will love this loom. It is much simpler than traditional looms. The thread typically used for beading is Nymo, which comes in a variety of colors. Size 10 or twelve beading needles will be fine, twelve being the thinner of the two and the one I personally would use. You can get the needles at Jo-Ann's or Michael's and probably also the Nymo but the Nymo colors will be limited. You will need to go to a specific bead store or online for a better Nymo color range. A lot of people recommend size D Nymo, but I prefer size B, which is a little bit thinner. The best beads for looming are Japanese, either Miyuki or Toho. Japanese beads are more cylindrical and more uniform in size than Czech or other beads. I prefer Toho. For a beginner, I would recommend either size 11 Toho seed beads or Toho Treasures. The colors are amazing and the bead sizes are very consistent. My favorite online site for beads is General Bead in San Francisco. They have very good prices, free shipping over $50.00 and some deals right now on Toho Treasures and Mikuki Delicas in some really beautiful colors. A lot of other stores have have them, too; I just prefer General Bead. Michaels does (I think) carry small amounts of Tohos but I think they will be a lot cheaper if you buy online. You could also google on Amazon and compare prices. I would also recommend a thread conditioner called Thread Heaven which I think you can get either at JoAnn's or Michael's and definitely online. Another good place to buy supplied is Beadaholique, which has its own online store and also sells through Amazon. I also love Beaducation, which has great customer service and very good prices, though they are a little bit more focused on metalworking. Both Beadaholique and Beaducation have GREAT free teaching videos on You Tube, many of which focus on beading. I know Beadaholique has a video on the Ricks Loom. It's the best loom I've ever used and your granddaughter will love it!

Ok this one has a 15 gauge needle, the larger the number for the gauge the thinner the needle will be so depending on how thin you want just go with a higher gauge number.

I use the standard BD Allergy Syringe - 1cc with 28G, 1/2" needle. They have them at my pharmacy.

depends on the gauge of the needle. You would need a really heavy gauge to pump this through it. If you need to inject with a syringe, I would suggest a normal, clear 2 part epoxy, although your set time will be just as quick, with limited time to inject out of the syringe. You'd also probably have to throw the syringe away afterwards, unless you got it apart and cleaned with acetone before the epoxy hardened....

You can use any circular needles in place of regular needles. Just knit back and forth as you normally would and pretend the cable isn't there.

I made a quick search and found a source of tips that might interest you at http://www.dispensinglink.com/dispense_needles.htm Good luck.

There is a curved needle that would work better, but any needle would work if you are careful when sewing up the rip/tear. If you expect to sew and make the tear more water tight then keep the stitches closer together.

I wouldn't recommend for this type of project, try something smaller and more precise, good luck Kimberly!

You haven't said which syringe. The smallest ones I ordered were about 4.5 to 5 inches, no needle. I had no idea about sizing, either.

Yes! Just make sure you use the correct needle size...the manual suggests a #100/16.

Honestly I dont know the exact size. you would use this size needle for very large cut of meat. From using this item I learned that a smaller needle is needed to prevent creating holes that leak moisture & marinade.

I found it by mistake. I didn't know there would be a needle in the kit. It's wrapped in plastic. I suggest looking very thoroughly through everything to see if you can find it. I never used the needle provided and just used one I like to use. Hope that helps.

Hi There, Unfortunately Im not sure what other needles will work on that particular cartridge. Im using the ortolan pro stylus. If it looks like it could work you could buy and return. I have done that move before with other cartridges. Good luck,

Doubt it, when I ordered this kit it came with a bunch of mixed up stuff in a bag not the right needles even. Good luck
