Re-stuffing caps
#3

LOL,, old saying...............

if you want it real bad,, you get it real bad!

these guys have it nailed when it comes to the passion of looking correct when resto..... not only caps but resistors also.

yes, you heard me,,

there is a thread here somewhere of someone who discovered "hampton Inn" disposable ink pin's are the perfect diameter for some of the dog bone resistors using the tube only

you cut the tube length to match the old resistor, you slot about 1/8'' on each end,, you slip a modern resistor inside the tube,,, you slip each end of the resistor into the slots then wrap the excess lead around the ends... then you epoxy or whatever the whole thing by dipping or whatever then paint it up then install.

amazing!!!

so........ think about re-stuffing caps and RESISTORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
