I like to use plumbing supplies for the cap motor........
Get a little short piece of PVC pipe, glue a cap on one end and glue an
internal female threaded fitting on the other......then drill two 1/8"
holes in a threaded plug for the wires which will attach to the cap. Solder
the wires onto the cap, pass them through the holes and then thread the
plug in...then hose clamp the "big pill" to a tower leg.....either bring
the two cap leads to the terminal strip - or - into the quick disconnect
plug on your rotor.......
Remember to have a spare capacitor on hand when you need to check the rotor
on the ground!
