Lumbar Puncture Needle Depth

Do far in should you go asks @henrygoldstein...

Recently, I prepared up to perform a Lumbar puncture for the first time in a few months and was by a quiet voice at the back of my brain with the question combination; How deep would I need to go? Which length needle would be the best?
