Then I took the bottom sawn off the cap and flatten it into a ring.
Then solder the ends together.
Then cut a groove in the base, run the other cap end through it and solder to the ring.
For the second cap I fashioned the contact from the Romex fire as the ring I had broke because I scored it after flattening to make making the circle easier and while being bent it broke.
Next I will put hot glue between the felt and the base to stabilize the cap.
The pad obviously is being used to prevent the cap rubbing against the lug.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
