Anyone in UK got any *axial* lead 1% tolerance 0.1uF caps they can spare one of - I'll pay reasonable cost + postage.
Working voltage of original is 100V, but anything over 50V should be fine.
Might save a lot of time if you'd build it up out of smaller units, using the capacitance measuring function of your DVM.

Not a viable option in this case (physical space constraints), and in any case I don't trust a DMM to be accurate enough on capacitance. It really does need to be 1% as there's no room to fit a pot to replace the R part (also 1%) of the R/C timing circuit.
