Reattaching an wah inductor 'lead'

[analog kid]

I brought this over from another post , even though it's not a totally new subject but thought there may be others with(possibly valuabe) inductors that need this simple repair to get going again
I had one side coil lead wire come detatched from the post on a Fasel inductor that I have, And very much LIKE the sound of!  I carefully picked the lead free from the body of the inductor and sanded the post nice and tinny and NOW am ready to REATTACH the lead to the post.
My only question is .... what is the best/proper way of doing this.?? It seems that the coil leads are typically wrapped around and soldered to the inductor posts on most that I see BUT i am afraid that the delicate tip of the lead would not handle 25w iron heat well OR take solder.( ? ? )
Also I wondered if possibly Cementing or Super Gluing the lead ,.maybe to the opposite side (the "L" shaped side that hooks through the inductor base) of the post , opposite the side that goes in the crkt board. Figuring that heat from soldering the part in the board wouldn't be as likely to loosen the glue if attached on that side??
What is the proper/recommended way to do this???
I hope this isn't that crazy of a question.
Thanks

I looked up conductive glue and found some interesting things.

Anyway it does exist and some of it is $$.

Thanks! I "WAS" wondering about that as a possibility but figured< as you said> that it would cost $$
This will be the way I'll go if I can't get the job I just did to hold up, since I'm very afraid of soldering! There just isn't enough length to the lead to where I could risk burning /breaking ANY of it off.

That said.... I DID! Manage to connect the coil to the post(top side where the "L" hooks through the base, opposite the leg that enters the circuit) I decided to place a dab of plastic cement on the post while pushing the coil lead against it HOPING that the continuity would remain . AND IT DID!!!
So far. IT's just a matter of if it will hold up being pushed into the board and the use of the wah.?
thanks for the help!

Thre are a lot of ways to damage a fine copper wire, but heat isn't one of them.
At least, not soldering temperature.
The big problem is scraping off the insulation without nicking the wire. If you can carefully scrape off the insulation, you are golden. Or at least copper..

[analog kid]

it can handle the Heat , huh??
I believe it was Stu Castledine who told me the other day that on these inductors you can solder right though the insulated coil wire (which confuses me cause I don't see anything but plain copper wire to recognize any insulation being there.. but maybe it can't be seen) That it's MADE to be able to do that. (?) He just advised me be careful not to huff it in!
thanks

I think there are a few different forms of insulating material on fine guage copper wire. So soldering behavior & necessity to scrape it off will vary.
I can assure you it all IS varnished/coated somehow, otherwise it would be a horrible blackish tarnished appearance & you would NEVER solder it :x
