Are there any 2 lug sealed trim pots out there? IF so where and if not, would I just wire the middle lug to one end of the resistor pad and either of the other two lugs to the other side?

anyone got a 2 lug sealed 50k trimmer for trade? if ther avail. preferable a horizontal.

thanks sands

I'm not sure if straight variable resistors are common ( I am sure they are out there somewhere though). And you are correct the middle lug and either outer lug of a potentiometer would work. The third end could be broken off if you don't want it in the way.
