I've never actually tried this, but I would think that one of those tools
used for picking up carious kinds of parts would work nicely.  One of the
tools thats about the size of a pencil and when you press a plunger on one
end, three prongs extend.  I'd imagine you could get pretty good results
with something like this.  If you're interested, I believe sears used to
sell these, and they used to come in a lot of the older computer
maintenance kits.

Subject:  [VFB] Handling plastic eyes


VFBeeeees,

I'd like to ask the squad what your preferred techniques are for
handling plastic eyes?  Nothing I do works very consistently.  A pair
of pliers or tweezers is a disaster...the eye tends to shoot out of the
grip, bounce off the tying table and fall on the floor.  *g*

When I get the occasional attack of dermatitis, my fingers aren't soft
or sensitive enough to grasp the little bitty dome of plastic.  Various
kinds of grippers are usually too big and fat to work well on small
things.

Anybody have a sure-fire method of handling eyes?
