Condenser work ALL DONE ! Icon_e_biggrin

Replacing the 3 section main electrolytic went smoother than I expected. It helped that there was sufficient extra length on all the wires going to it that I could just cut off the soldered ends and re-strip them to install on the new condenser. A Dremmel tool with a carbide cutting disc made short work of the soldered on outside lugs. The new condenser fit perfectly, and re-soldering it went very smoothly. It turned out a lot easier than I had expected ! So, this is what it looks like with the new condenser installed. See above for the before picture.

Now, I am going to make me a mint julep to celebrate. Icon_e_biggrin
