Duaine A pneumatic is a disposable item. It will take less time to make a complete set in the scenario that you are describing than to glue the splinters back together and hope you can stop the leakage. If you have access to 8/4 Poplar, a planer, jointer, table saw and drill press you can make a set of 180 leaves in no time.

C. Bay player action. As I've been prying off the pneumatics, the bottom boards (with the hole and glued to the stack) are shredding. I think out of 44, so far, only about 4 have come off clean.
