Scenario: We have a conductor that was cut with an exacto by accident. Question: Why can't we just scrape off the solder mask and bridge solder over it? Would that be a legal fix? The person questioned wasn't really sure what the true explanation of that should be, since solder is what holds everything together. I told him I would solicit help from all of you. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Connie Korth Reptron Mfg.
