Darren, is there any other benefit to using a hot paper clip? (Cauterizing / sterilizing the nail?)
I've always used a welding torch tip drill (AKA: a pin vice) and a tiny drill bit (cleaned with alcohol) that is turned with the good fingers on the other hand.
Light pressure, go slow, and as soon as it breaks through the nail... spurt!
