Then, hold the point end over an open flame (stove, lighter, etc) and let it get red hot.
Then hold it to the marking and insert slowly and steadily - pulling back smoothly.
This creates a hole with a little plastic bead surrounding the hole. It gives it a finished look of sorts.
Feel free to test it on another thin sliver of plastic to see what it looks/feels like.

Even better! Would have to use something a tad bigger & do a 2nd time, as the stylus has a ways to go into the hole.. a pin is a tad small..
