I just purchased this kit and canNOT find the needle! Anyone remember where it was in the kit? And if not, what needle should I buy/use?

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.

That is the one that quit on me also. When you pull your needle off and put it back on the new motor just align it on (0) i found it helpfull to follow the youtube video. If it is not right just take it apart again and realign the needle i had to do that two times to get everything right.

Mine came with a needle tip - you can easily buy them in any hardware store - same as used for basketball inflation.

Try your local art's and crafts store.(if small is what you want) I also used a 31gauge insulin syringe. And load it yourself ( be careful )

I used the syringe like the gel. I think that was an extra bonus. It was nice to have a bonus in the package.Liza.

Approximate sizes, the straight needle is about 1 3/4" or 46mm long-2mm diameter and the curved needles are 2 1/8" or 55 mm long-3mm diameter. I don't know where others got 4". They must have measured up one side and down the other or SWAGGED an estimate. I used an accurate caliper. Dick

The tambour needle set comes with instructions on how to replace needles and get other sizes also. Lacis.com is my choice to buy replacement needles!

When the needle fell out, we had to use a flat head screw driver and pop it back into the little crevice that it belonged in. Kind of hard to explain, this thing was such a pain!!!

Honestly I've never used one of these before in fact coming across it on Amazon is how I learned about it....so I figured I would buy the smallest size and go from there. Which would be my recommendation to anyone else new to them. I haven't used mine yet (I keep forgetting to pick up the correct alcohol to keep it clean in apparently regular rubbing alcohol will damage it) but the company was extremely wonderful by sending me info on use and care tips before I received mine and they have since sent me even more info which I appreciate so very much. But back to answering your question (sorry to get off track there) for a beginner I would say the smallest needle size and not a super costly one..

It comes with a needle. Note that mine shipped with the needle stored in the handle (under a little plastic cover - see the posted picture )

The needle works with the corresponding tip, when I changed mine they would not fit together if I used the wrong size needle and tip, I just used it yesterday the needle may also have a stamping on the brass sleeve of the needle.

Hello Heo Ung, Kendall here from The Friendly Swede! Thank you for your interest in our paracord survival kit! I understand your concern about not knowing if everything is in the kit or not. However, it is extremely rare that one should arrive with missing parts. There is, unfortunately, no way around it other than unwrapping the paracord. I have never had a customer claim that anything was missing out of a survival kit so there shouldn't be any need to worry! Of course, if there did happen to be anything missing, we'd be more than happy to make it right by you :) If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to contact us at the customer service link below. Thanks! Best, Kendall / The Friendly Swede

Mine came with a syringe, and no instructions. The syringe was garbage and bent easily: worthless after one use.

Not necessarily. The one I received didn't have the needle. So I have to order one separately. :-S

I use the same needles for all my machines. It is an embroidery needle 75/11. I get mine online from Home Sew.com. I buy them in bulk. Hopefully this helps

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

I bought this item for someone and it's been too long to remember, for sure, but, I believe that it did come with a needle. Sorry that I can't give you more than a "definite maybe". I can tell you that it's a good, durable product. I would buy&gt; Good luck.
