Hello All,

In the step that calls for the twisting together and installation of two 0.1 uF 100V capacitors (Z5U) one of them broke at the wire / ceramic point.
Does anyone know where I can get another one of these in relatively short timeframe?

Thanks,
Moodyhh

Are you in the US or overseas somewhere?

I would just e-mail replacementparts(at)Bottlehead(dot)com to ask for a replacement.  You could buy the same thing from Mouser or Digikey, but it would likely cost a lot more and show up at about the same time.
