- triumph_watch — the needle went in fine but it stung going in, alcohol or the compound 21:59
- quiet_head_qi — sorry to jump in a proper sharps bin costs almost nothing and pharmacies will take it back 22:03
- quiet_head_qi — never recap a used pin. that is how people stick themselves, for what its worth 22:15

31G 8mm for everything. i tried the 12.7mm once and never went back
welts at the site are usually a mild local reaction and rotation sorts it
sorry to jump in a proper sharps bin costs almost nothing and pharmacies will take it back
not a problem

never recap a used pin. that is how people stick themselves, for what its worth
