Thank you, Richard! I am using KiCAD for the schematic and PCB design.

I started to consider a PCB for the new C100 A/B bakelite capacitor, but then I had an idea. What if I were to get a three-lug terminal strip with a common central lug, such as this?

   

I could mount it to the chassis where the old bakelite capacitor has been removed, and then solder the two new safety capacitors to it. Schematically, here's what I need to do.

   

This would be very simple with a terminal strip. Additionally, I don't feel that I need to over-engineer this one with a PCB. The entire system is mounted to the underside of the chassis, and there is only one screw to connect the grounded connection to the chassis.

Well, my personal opinion:

If you miss the backelite, it is OK
If you do have the existing backelite, it is a waste of effort.

Are the bakelite capacitors allowed to stay in place? I suppose that's my only concern.

A popular practice is to restuff them with new capacitors.

This is a thread I wrote, it is in "Shop talk" here.
