You might also want normal cold tweezers to place the part. I'm not sure what an orange stick is, around here I'd use a wooden toothpick. Perhaps that's the same thing !
The Swiss Venus tweezers have a lovely finish and the ends always meet. There are probably others as good. If you get some placing tweezers, make sure they're antimagnetic. Some small parts (even resistors, that I wouldn't expect to contain steel) seem to stick even to stainless steel. I've also heard bambooo tweezers are good, but have never tried them.
