What about when you raise a building and then raze it? Or when you cleave a piece of wood in two and then use glue to cause one half to cleave to the other? When you put too much current through a fuse, the metal fuses and the circuit is broken, so that the pieces cool and you are left with two separate pieces. If you were to heat them again, you could fuse them back together.
