Hello Glenn. Would you be willing to post a description of the air =
actuator again. I don't recall seeing any such thing (I've caught a few =
legitimate emails that were filtered out by my spam filter - I've even =
seen a few of my own get filtered out!). I would sure appreciate any =
such info. Always looking for a way to minimize damage to a soundboard =
during removal.
