the acetone or cold (freezer) suggestions seem promising. Cyanoacrylate
glue is inherently brittle, much more so than epoxy at any rate, so
putting it in the freezer for a few hours is worth a shot if you're
worried about using acetone.

  Hi everyone,

Here's hoping everyone had a nice holiday season.

You all helped out a lot with my last question about painting, thanks.

Here's another question for you:

What's a good way to 'break' a superglue bond?

I have some ships on metal poles and bases that I would like to
reorient. I'd like to break the glue at either where the pole connects
with the ship, or where it goes into the base socket. Then I can
reorient the ship on the base.

Any suggestions? Heat? Acetone? Just crank it?

Thanks a bunch.
