Restuffing the triple electrolitic (in my case it is in the copper can) is a snap, actually. It is even simpler than fixing that single cap.
The single one you have to cut.
the triple one, once you unscrew it, just heat it with the heatgun and pull the wires, it will all come out very easy. I even re-used the wires.
After that I just took three al. can ones, made a common wire, soldered them, put them inside and potted with a gluegun. The whole think took me maybe 30 minutes.
The single can took longer, as I had to cut it. I cut it right where the cap tapers down, so when i glued it back, it is not awfully noticeable.
PS. The Xfmr looks neat!
