I also tape my metel thimble on. Different times of the day makes my finger larger or smaller. What I like even better is to cut the end of a finger off a rubber glove. Usually the "little" finger and the next size larger. I stick an oval of leather inside and slip it on my finger, making sure the leather is in the correct place. I don't use the end of my finger to push the needle, but the side. This works very well for me.
