This was one of my saltwater capacitors. I used 12 12oz Miller Genuine Draft bottles per bucket. I had six bottles per string for a capacitance of ~.005uf. I had two terminals, one for each string, that could be tied together to give me a value of .01uf. The common terminal I located on the opposite side of the bucket. All of the hardware was 1/4-20 brass.
Construction of the saltware cap is simple. Instructions for making your own are here.
