Scott 800B: The tuner
#14

BAD, buy a bunch of cut off wheels, I like the thinner ones as they go quicker. Wear glasses, they will break and fly apart. After a lot of experience doing this I could get about 1.5 caps per wheel. I also cut the tabs coming off the cans as close as I could with a cutter. It left the wires attached to the lug. You will find that the wires give no real extra length for cutting off and then reattaching. Remove the can, cut out the bottom, clean it out. Drill our heat the left over nub on the can. I would heat it and then bang it down into my trash can to knock the solder off. If necessary a little drill on my hand drill to clean it out.
Next, just stuff with the long leads coming out of the hole. Solder the connection to the hole although not necessary. Then take that lead and wrap it around the the wire/stub you cut off and solder.
Really not that hard. Trying to remove those wires from the original connection was, well, a CENSORED. This worked for me and left everything underneath looking neat.
Regards, Jerry

PS: Had no problem stuffing poly caps inside of any of them.
