Anyone have advice on how to pin tiny/narrow parts together? This gingerbread knight did not glue well, but I’m concerned that the arm/body interface is too close to the diameter of the paperclips I use to pin them together without the drill making a mess of it all. Thanks!

For pieces like this, I use .5mm wire, with an appropriately small drill bit. I use a pin vise to drill by hand and go slowly. It's possible to pin tiny things, the key is to be patient. (and practice)
