How can I get the eyes in place?

Eyes

Can't get the eyes in place after bisque firing the head? Using a dowel or chopstick with a little wax on it, slide the eye inside the head. A flat eye is the better choice here. Put the waxed end of the chopstick inside and push it against the back of the eye, to get it to stick to the eye. Move the eye up to the opening and, using the chopstick, push in against the bisque. Complete the eye setting as usual.
