You might want to try "loc tite" threadlocker. You can get it at good hardware stores, maybe auto supply stores. You want the NON permanent type. It will make it hard to unscrew, but that's what you are looking for.

I was told to use plain glue or clear nail polish to help seal mine. Helps keep it together but you can twist it open agan to change beads.
Good luck!

Yeah, I've had to glue mine also. They just don't stay on otherwise.
