Okay don't laugh at me... While Noobing around with a modded rangemaster circuit using some AC128s I snapped off the leg to the base. Can I solder/rig something back on? I'm waiting for some more exciting parts and want to build a fuzz-face something or other to stay sharp in the meantime.

The funny answer is also the actual answer:  If you can.

Not very likely unless it broke more than an 1/8" away from the body. If it's broke off right at the body, then it's pretty much trash now.

There is a little nubbin, less than 1/8" but something regardless. I have some super lo-temp 'Chip Kwik' solder. I'm just gonna try it, I'll let you know. Thanks for the advice!

i've done it numerous times w/ less than 1/8"...just remember to NOT hold the solder iron on there for any extended time and tin the nub beforehand.

good luck
