You need to be careful with Beeswax. it can hold the core tight enough that you
break it.

I've always heard about inserting a small diameter piece of rubber band in
between, but hav
ut a small
coating of bees wax on it, increasing the diameter and making it a bit
sticky.
That said, I've never done any procedure.

Hello,
Got situation where the 'elastic' or whatever inside RX IF transformer
has disintegrated through age allowing ferrite core to drop to bottom
thus negating adjustment.
What successful fixes have been found for such a problem which will
continue to allow adjustment yet not jam the core?
