Hello All,
I have a pretty good set of caps for sale here... 
The flat rate is $1.70 per cap, and includes an acrylic string and bleeder
resistors all pre-soldered. 
There are two small strings and a bank of four available. All strings consist
of (12) 3kvdc .1µF metalized polypropylene snubbers made by General Electric.
The strings measure 8.33nF with a voltage rating of 36kVdc. These were designed
for use with an NST at 15kV or less. Using Terry's life calc, they should last
approx 470 hours on a 15kV NST, or 13360 hours on a 12kV NST.* 
The bleeder resistors are 10MegOhm 1/2 watt from Digikey. The bank of four
comes with two 1" thick brass buss bars with 1/4"-20 bolts to hold the strings
and 3/8"-16 bolts to anchor the bank (Yes, it is a major overkill, but that's
just my style :-).
Also note, MMCs will die if used in a system with an Asynchronous rotary spark
gap. That's the only guarantee that comes with these caps. 
Oh, one more thing, the strings are 16" long...
