I've found gorilla glue expands and secures the whole thing well. I like what you did here better than how Jeff does his.
I would not recomend this to anyone however at least you soldered to the magnet wire.
I found epoxy didn't work well. As I recall I had crackling sounds as the epoxy was hard and the mechanical buzzing of those chokes would cause noise with the movement of the epoxy. Kind of scary actually. LOL
Just don't cut up any nice 18lbs Heyboer PTs or leadouts on nice output transformers. At least a choke you are only out ~ $25.

Does this glue last? I've used it on items around the house and noticed that the seams become brittle and crack after a few years.
Thanks!
Try shoe goo, iI use it to hold all kinds of stuff put. JH
miss Shoe Goo nah.
Walmart carries it, under ten dollars.
Its pretty much a very dense polyurethane foam. If you leave it exposed to UV (the sun) it will degrade fast.
From what I've done with it I find it quite durable. Ugly but durable.
