Re: Neat Idea....

You can also build "gimmick" caps from teflon CAT5 wire for small pf value caps. Take two teflon wires, say 4" long, and twist them together tightly - do not connect the far ends, keep them insulated from eath other of course. The two leads are your caps leads. I usually make a few and connect them in parallel. I fold them up then wrap them with white teflon plumbers tape. You need a meter to measure them to get the correct value. These work great in feedback circuits for me.
