I've decided to try and start making my own cap banks. I've been running the castle one for like $22 but I felt I could do better. Please let me know if there's something not right with this....thx
So the castle ones have (4) 50v, 220uf caps. I've been reading on here and decided to go with (5) 35v 1000uf caps. May be a good choice or not...let me know your thoughts. Here's what I'm doing so far.
I bought a small bag of these caps for .75 each. So total cost for 5 of them is $3.75
Then I went to radio shack and picked of some circuit boards. The one I'm using cost $3.49 and I can make 2 out of it. Total cost for both factoring in I can get two boards is About $5.50 before tax. I have to pick up a couple brass screws and nuts tomorrow and I'll add that in. So....
Here's my components I have so far:

I put a strip of Silicon (hondabond because I get it free lol) to hold them in place.
