I may have accidentally stepped on my Apple Keyboard II while one of the legs was open and it might have broken off. How do I fix this?

How to repair leg of Apple Keyboard II?

I've used a product called Plast-aid to make repairs to plastic items. It is a two part system with a plastic powder that you mix with the solvent that is moldable for a period of time that can be used to reattach parts together or even to shape a new piece. When it hardens, you can file or drill it. It ends up being a bit crude looking, but is fairly strong when hardened.
Hmm, after doing research (watching 2 videos), I feel like might Plastaid will stick to it well, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to move the leg. I found a video where some guy tests different epoxies with plastic, but I think that I wouldn't be able to move the leg with those. I think I remember someone suggesting a glue (maybe plumber's glue?) but I can't find where they said that, so I'm not sure which type they suggested.
