Why not keep them and start trying to shink coins?

I was thinking of that, actually. Iggy, what would you need for some of
these?
I think that I would need all my caps, and some way to vent the copper
gas from exploding copper coils. In other words, too violent for me.
I want to keep one or two caps at most. I think that I could build a
coke can crusher (you can do a google search for "can crusher
capacitor"), using materials readily available, such as solid copper
wire, fiberglass, pvc pipes, and steel balls. I think that 2 uF at 18
kV could be enough to deform the cans.
