But we have the same issue: what adhesive to use for bonding the cans back together.

I've been using two part epoxy, and indeed, it will be decades at least before they would ever need to be addressed again, but I was thinking about using a high temp hot glue or even hide glue. In other words, something that can allow the cans to be taken back apart with heat.

Oh, and your wiring is FAR too neat!!

Thanks for the kind words.
I don't glue the cans back on. I just slide them back over the plastic sleeve. It's a slight friction fit. That way, the cans can be simply removed by lifting them off.
