Upper and lower bounds for the capacity of planar Cantor-like sets are presented. Chebichev polynomials are the principal tool employed in the derivation of these estimates. A necessary and sufficient condition for certain planar Cantor-like sets to have positive capacity is obtained. Related one-sided capacitary estimates for more general Cantor-like sets can be found in [3, pp. 106-109]. Techniques analogous to those used in this paper yield similar results for linear Cantor-like sets which are well-known [2, pp. 150-161]. The use of Chebichev polynomials to obtain these results provides an alternate, possibly more elementary, approach to these linear problems.
