I was thinking that would be the way to go.
In fact I can  see some delamination, on the main reservoir as well.  
Previously, on minor delamination, I have just glued it back together.
I would use compressed air to force the glue to the back of the  
separation.
I think I might just replace all the wood with new. I must inform the  
customer of the additional cost, and make sure he is agreeable.
Thanks, Ron.
