I can't even tell there are color bands on the resistors unless I use a 
magnifier, but the magnifier doesn't help me determine what the colors 
are, since I am color blind. That's why I use the DMM to check every 
value. Thanks to the folks at Elecraft for putting the resistors in the 
correct order.

Now those color-coded inductors are another problem, which is where the 
XYL comes in handy.

I hope the "glue" remark was a figure of speech.
