Lee,
I went whole hog on 18 sets for the ones I am rebuilding.
cut the cans open on an engine lathe, cut off the ends of the old ones, 
stripped out the guts, boiled the cans to loosen up the crud, then 
scraped them clean on the inside. Then had to squeeze one of the .47 in 
a vise to fit in the can. Drilled the pins and inserted small brass 
screws to solder to. Sealed the cans with JB weld and had adhesive 
labels made to state the value and date done. Would I do it again NO WAY.
My choice would be Frontier Capacitor who does them for about $40.00 
each with a guarantee.
No these are not for sale.
I have a few labels left, silver with black lettering. They say rebuilt 
by KN6DI on them.
