Ron's RCA T7-5 Electronic Rescue
#44

No radio work last night, had to mow the grass.

Tonight, I managed to mostly get two of the three electrolytic cans restuffed.

Here's one:

and the other:

and now both, mostly finished save for allowing the glue to dry on the top caps:

It was tricky to figure out how to feed a negative lead through the bottom of the can so that the nut could still be reattached. The wires are rather close together, but at least the positive leads are well insulated so it should not be an issue. The negative leads are also insulated, but their insulation is not as thick as that of the positive leads.

Arran, I might try your suggestion of attempting to work something between the "ears" of the nut on the third electrolytic - if it doesn't work out, I will still rebuild it in place.
