Today I rebuilt aluminum can caps.
I used 8uF film instead of electrolytics. They fit just fine, close enough in value (8 vs 6 uF) and were easy to mount.
Also the aluminum can caps themselves ( not original but good-looking) lent themselves to very easy gutting. So I rebuilt the two in 30 minutes. Right now they are waiting for the epoxy to cure.

   
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
