It's good to learn these things, but I would repeat Eric's observation that this type of cap rarely if ever needs replacement. I don't think I have ever replaced one of the types shown in these photos, knock on wood.

I would be especially leery of messing with this type of cap in an RF or IF circuit, since that might force an otherwise unnecessary realignment.
