RE: Hering 1923

["Hambone Hamilton" <harpmanx@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't lost one yet on mine, but I clean them often and make sure they're 
tight when I do.
Has anyone tried teflon tape?  I know those little rascals are small, but it 
seems to me like that would be the ticket to make 'em stick.  Glue to me 
does not seem like a good idea.

Hey, this might sound silly, but how about a drop of something sticky like 
maple syrup?  Seems like that would hold the nut as far as slippage goes, 
but not so that you couldn't take it off when you need to.  I think I"ll try 
that and post my results.
