Speedy stitcher sewing tool for sewing machine needles

Sewing machine needles don't fit in my speedy stitcher clone. Its also too heavy and bulky for small stitching.

I modified the collet in the "Finger Loop Hobby Knife" to take a sewing machine needle. Use the files from this thing to make the complete thing or choose / design a different handle.

Notes:
The finger loop is too far away to use the needle so I ended up holding it like a pencil.
The loop is useful in determining which thread to loop under when sewing.

Look up speedy stitcher if you have not heard of this style of sewing.
