Ruined Ducky Shine PCB, would my handwired fix work?
« on: Tue, 15 August 2023, 05:02:18 »
First time ever touching a soldering iron, but i was trying to de-solder an old ducky keyboard i had around. I put in all the sockets and everything seemed good, but my D key would not work... Tried to de-solder it and solder it again, but accidentally ripped the copper pad. Am i able to solder a cable from the socket holding the left pin on the S switch onto the left pin on the D switch, and the right pin on the D switch onto the D277 diode beloning to the D key?

Here are 3 pictures showing the issue and what im hoping will be a band aid fix for my issue.301584-0301586-1301588-2

Thanks for any help
