T.L., You might want to hang on to those glass eyes for repairs on the old plugs. I've been using solid plastic eyes, installed in a hole with a flat bottom (brad point or fostener bit) and held in place with 5 min. epoxy. The glass eyes were installed on the old plugs by leaving a short piece of the wire on the back of the eye and pressing it into the wood like a tack. They may have used some glue also to hold them, but not sure. The plastic eyes are a fraction of the price of glass ones.
