Oh so close. The new pins came in, they are .187 , the existing are .180. The new female socket is .200 and the existing is .188. So the new pins won't fit into the existing sockets, but I can trim them down to fit the existing sockets to fit on my lathe. I will just make new female sockets from round rod for the new leaves. Thanks for the help.

Awesome. Glad you were able to find a solution.
I no longer build museums but don't want to change my name. My new job is a lot less stressful. Life is much better.
