> I take issue on some things like cutting holes or like a recent post 

I try not to make holes larger than screw holes (for sensibly-sized 
screws). But if I have to replace, say, a transformer and the new one is 
not idetnical to the old, I'd rather drill an extra mounting hole or 2 
than leave that transformer hanging on one screw. 


> removing a large filter cap and replacing it with two smaller caps, even 

If the original filter cap is unavailable, then I would replace it with 2 
smaller ones in parallel (better than having a non-working machine, 
surely). I'd use the right part if I could get it though.

Let's not start that again...
