Purists will wretch, but I've found that running a #4-40 screw through the
center and securing it with 2washers, a lockwasher, & a nut works *VERY*
well...

Flame me if you must, but it's better than breaking precious LEGO(R) parts

Well, I've tried putting paper into the peg several different ways to try • to
make it stiffer, but the paper loosens up after awhile...

Some joints just don't have room (functionaly or estheticaly) for anything
but a simple friction peg, but they have JUST enough weight for the joint
not to hold...

Any other tips?

Thanks
