Default ABC repair - don't do this!

When I cartwheeled my ABC last weekend and ripped up the tail, I quickly glued it up & set it nose-down to dry. But a drop of the thin CA I used ran down the fuse, found its way to the hole where the control lines come out, and glued the lines to the inside of the fuse. Now I can't even pull out the receiver until I ream those lines loose. I guess the moral of the story is: Practice safe gluing & be careful what goes up the hole - you may be in for a reaming.

You might buy some CA "debonder", and drip some of that in there.

Thanks. I don't have any of that. But I was thinking of pouring Ex-lax down the other end
I did find some acetone (nail polish remover), and I *****ed around in the hole with a needle and finally the lines came loose.
I've now named the ABC the 'Gay Flyer'...
