Superglue + USB-C = Ruined (let's see how repairable this thing is)
I’ve made a very foolish and possible catastrophic mistake. I was building a full-size SD card adapter, one of these: I found an SD card reader that fits - #9 by maybeRui and as I was gluing the PCB...

I feel for you, but why would you not wait until the superglue was dry…I mean it dries very quickly. Rather than risking the same incident again why not just get an SD card dongle? No risk, no...

Update: I really did think the superglue was dry Replacing the card is more for self-fulfillment than any logical or usage need, I failed to build a thing that should have been simple, I’m gonna give...

superglue is dissolved with acetone and I don’t =think= anything else on the motherboard should be sensitive to that. You might want to consider a few drops and working it a bit to see if it breaks...
