I had a switch on my Precision that was broken in three pieces. I used expoxy after wrapping the switch with tape to hold the pieces in place. It was not removed. All came out well except the 2.5V setting on the switch (filament select). It takes a little rocking and rolling in to get it to fire up. I wouldn't use JB weld as at least the one I used for another project was rather conductive.
