Isn't 1-3 ohm a more correct value if you want to remove the parallel resonance?

Snubber guide lines
I was thinking to do the same thing but the body of the caps is really close to the soldering pads. It might be dangerous for the caps, especially since we need to keep the iron there enough time to heat the pads.
I built a couple of boards for my F5 a few months back.
I have no big problem, except that they were not really designed to be used with heatsinks (as it was suggested as an option).
The holes for the secondaries and the jumpers are very close to the diode holes, so if you attach heatsinks it is really a PITA to fit the cables in there. And in some cases (like the jumper holes) the heatsinks sit right on top of them, creating mechanical problems and possible shorting issues
It is now clear that space for heatsinks to-220 diodes packages must be considered. Thank you for the feedback, we will consider your inputs in the next revision.
Using screw terminal caps off the board
I have the opportunity to get some 22000uf Kendeils at a discount but they are with screw terminals K61 TYPE. These will obviously not fit on the board, so does it matter if I just have leads running from the board to the capacitors mounted on the side of the enclosure? Anything to worry about?
