Really. Please just buy one from Harold. It's not that expensive, and 
this is one of those things you want to do "right" to avoid problems 
down the road. The other is the relays.

This cap runs at *very* high voltages (600+) since it is on a small 
winding on the transformer. Accuracy is also important, as this 
stabilizes the transformer.
