Restuffing Twist Lock Electrolytics
#9

I just posted that link to illustrate what I was talking about, I would never recommend paying anything near that for one, new product, NOS, or restuffed. But in the case of a vintage TV, and many radios, it's nice to keep the original can on top of the chassis if possible. I've never found it that difficult to remove the contents of any dry electrolytic once you get them open, a corkscrew or a wood screw driven into the roll, a little heat, and the contents usually just slide out, but getting them back together is what I'm thinking of.
Regards
Arran
