Place them in some perf board and tin them. You don't have to tin them but I think it works best.
Here I have separated them. I put a red dot on the source so I can ID it. You could trim the board and put a drop of epoxy on them to make it more like a transistor.
Just for size comparison I have a #4-40 die with a piece of #12 wire in it and a penny. I did put some on the 1" square board also.
Hats off to Andy again. When I presented the thread on soda straw variable inductor he suggested using #4-40 screw to get fine tuning. The 'rod above is #12 solid copper wire. It's a perfect fit in the #4-40 die.
