Have you  thought of mini glue dots or self adhesive pin backs?

I am making these pins and I have purchased the pin  backs that are 3/4 inch
long.  I need to glue the pin backs to a  plastic cylinder.  So now I
purchased a small hot glue gun and tried  that.  Well yep I seem to be
burning my fingers if I put the glue on  the cylinder and then pick up the
pin  and try to find where I glued  it.  I can take the burnt fingers, but
if I  take too long to  figure out where to put the pin back and where the
glue is, the glue begins  to cool and get hard so it won't stick properly.

So I tried Aleene's  Tacky jar glue.  This I used actually one of those
little plastic  cheese spreaders that you get in those packages that have 4
crackers and  the smooth cheese you spread on the crackers.  Well I did a
pretty  good jjob putting the glue on and the pin back.  I even did not  get
too much glue squeezing out under the pin back, but...  When I  opened up
the pin back to pin it on the cards I have made up for the  pins.  I guess I
didn't use enough glue as the backs came off the  cylinders.

I figure I can give crazy glue a try, but any suggestions  how to not get
the glue dripping off the cylinder?  How to locate pin  back to glue spot
fast enough without seeing?  And how do I do this  without gluing my fingers
or pin or pin back to the above mentioned  places?  I can easily clean the
glue that I have used so far off the  granite counter, but I need some
suggestions here.

Help, Help,  Help!
