nice find Kimmie ;-) I was looking for one of those as I don't like my gas burning one. But I got a heat gun with different settings (with oven thermometer you can calibrate exactly what heat to use) from the Warehouse for $35.

Storky I dont like my gas burning pencil either. Its far too erratic with the flame going bigger and smaller on me.

Mine kind of had flames oozing over the handle towards my hand, and that was the first and last time I am using that thing!
The heat guns were at the tool section (with cheap skill saws/drills/etc) and come in a hard plastic carry case.

My heatgun arrived eventually. Posted had delivered it to the wrong house, and the people at that house happened to be away for a few days, but they personally delivered it to me when they arrived home and realised what had happened. (Good way to meet neighbours from way down the road. LOL
Ok this might sound nutty but do they all blow the hot air out of them.
I find on the little eyes I am trying to make that they blow them around my bench and turn them over. Slowly working out what distance to hold it so it doesnt happen.
Till I get a bit relaxed then they are off again and got to stop them rolling off the bench onto the floor and the dog grabbing them for a quick snack.LOL

Maybe you could use a dot of raw white clay to stick the eyeballs to a tile
You can then hopefully rub the clay off when the eye is clear
Hope this works its just an idea
