[Elecraft] hot glue K2 toroids?

[James Sarte]

Dear Dale,

Forgive me if I've missed previous email messages, but I still see no point
in securing the toroids with anything else other than solder???

Why can't one just solder them in properly?  Do you really need to secure
them any other way?  A good solder WILL NOT BREAK unless you rip it out by
force...

I wonder, would clear candle wax work well? It would tend to keep the
moisture out, and be stiff enough to hold the toroid in place, also be
easily removable with todays tools. 

One drip would do. Or would that be drop?
