Hi Brian,

Never have epoxied toroids, I can see one major
disadvantage using this method... You'd never be able
to rewind the same core. Epoxy is a real bear to
remove.

Agreed. OTOH, if I built a K2 I don't expect I would ever scrap it for spare toroids.


I've used hot glue to keep toroids in place, a little
easier to remove if needed.

Think you're better off with nail polish or acrylic..

Good point. Thanks.

My problem is that I have a bias -- I used to live on a boat. I used West System epoxy for just about every repair as the only two things that would attack it are UV and fire. Salt water does nothing to it.
