Phlogiston

What you have just described actually makes me very happy. I can do a lot of things with a solder including forming and even body work (many years back, as a hobby).
Please tell me where do you cut the groove- in the middle or at the edge?
Your caps are mounted by clamps, mine are not, so it has to look 100% correct.
Also,how high is the bakelite? If it is below the groove, I can make and solder inner short copper nipple the the either side, put both halves together and then fill with solder prior to the filing and wire brushing. Thanks.
BTW, they are nickel plated with a groove on the bottom.
