A few of the toroids were shoved over (from pack/ship), and I set those 
aright; otherwise I did not do much to line up etc.

But while I'm thinking toroids, I wasn't impressed with the windings 
themselves. Instead of evenly-distributed turns, the turns were clumped 
up in 2's and 3's, large gaps, more clumps. I'd be embarrassed to build 
a kit and wind toroids that looked that pathetic. However, the modules 
were aligned and work, so I'm not changing them (ain't broke, ain't fixin').
