Default rod building fix

I'm a fairly new to rod building, and I made a mistake.

I had my handle already finished when I realized I put the real seat
ring on backwards on an uplocking real seat.
Is there any way to "unbond" the epoxy to take part of the handle apart
to fix it?
I appreciate any help you can give me.

Default rod building fix

Thanks Kevin,

I've built 5 rods now and have always been so careful not to do
something stupid like that. I felt like such an idiot. I appreciate
your help.

Heat... boiling water ... 5 minutes or so...
