it seems to me that you could have the same good qualities without the space
inefficiency if you went to a flat plate capacitor - instead of using poly
sheets for dielectric, use open cell honeycomb plastic (like is sometimes
used under fluorescent lights) to keep the copper plates separated. Then
just stack up the plates and add oil. as you said, the dielectric will be
oil, thus easy to change.
