I just did a bit of research on film/foil capacitors and have found there is 
still at least one US manufacturer (Kemet A72 series) of polypropylene film/foil 
axial lead capacitors. Unfortunately they are not a stock item, so would have to 
be ordered and have minimum order quantities. I'm getting a quote for the .1 uf 
and .033 uf in 630VDC 10% and the .01uf in 400 VDC 10% (they don't show .01 uf 
available in 630 VDC). They won't be cheap with the .1 uf having a minimum order 
of  860 pieces @ $2.59 each and the .01 uf with a minimum order of 1990 pieces @ 
$1.56 each. They didn't have a price for the .033 uf and will email when they 
have it. 


Once I have the prices, if there are enough people interested, I would be 
willing to handle the transaction. Any other values the group thinks would be 
worthwhile considering?
