Seriously though, weak lock-tite will do the trick.  A dab of elmers school glue on the shaft threads may work as well.

The way I always understood it, you use blue if you want the option to break the bond with physical pressure (e.g., wrench, screwdriver, etc.). Red provides a higher strength bond that can be broken with heat but not pressure. Both are removable. For this application, red is definitely not the way to go.

I secured mine with a vicious physical twist and they are fine. But I'd be interested to see how well Teflon tape works. I bet a dab of hot glue would work OK too.

I've been using hot glue...it holds for a little while, but doesn't seem to last more than a day or so.

Maybe I'm just rougher on my balls than others...I don't know.

I'm gonna try the Teflon tape thing, I've got some of that around here somewhere.

What does FTW stand for? That  is an acronym I have never understood.
