Now, to ensure the bare wires will never touch the can I use one layer of fishpaper. The wires are formed such that they would not touch it anyway, but this is an extra safety measure.

And it is closed.

And now we measure the caps.

As ordered, 3x 1uF and 1x 3.3uF

I plugged the holes in the rivets with the same JB Weld epoxy I glued the cap together with.

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.
