Maybe too large but the concept can be used with small nylon webbing and vice-grips...

I have only stuffed the copper ones some 40ya. I have not done more. I use added terminal strips below chassis, leave the OEM caps fully disconnected...

IMHO stuffing is overrated, I have done well with tie strips and radial caps strategically placed. Never had an oscillation problem. None the less the Bakelite blocks have to be stuffed but that is an easy task...

YMMV
