Working on repro Philco brass capacitor cans
#26

Kirk, here are a couple of different versions that I made. Trick is the cap. These have 8 - 16uf @630V film caps in them. You can't see it but the bottom one has the cap flush with the body - it is also larger in diameter, more like those found in a Crosley.

   

P.S. you see, you can add the groove by either turning it (top one) or by building it into the cap body (bottom) , The top cap on the bottom one just pushes on and off, so you can change the capacitor value (inside) at any time. Both are all copper.
