Default Re: Baird TR1 restoration begins.

Those cans are pretty quick with 10mm diameter flat screen mains cans.
You can get up to four in when re-stuffing a 30mm can by drilling through the bung.
Put a dowel in the first hole to keep the guts still while you drill the other holes.
A small dab of epoxy will stop the new caps falling out again.
Also leaving the can in the chassis avoids leaving tool marks.
