Hello George,
                           If it is of any help to you when I built my 
two K2's I used a foam rubber pad to mount all the passive components 
i.e. the capacitors, chokes and the loose resistors. I also used 
conductive foam for the transistors etc. I did this for each board and 
in the value order they were to be mounted on the PCB. I found that this 
also helped to prevent components going missing as some of the caps are 
very small.

     Enjoy the building of your K2 and using one of the finest rigs on 
the market for the price, more joy for less dollars Hi.
