Mhpspeed, you need CA or "superglue". Its better when you buy CA from hobby shops instead of Krazyglue or Superglue. It is essentially the same stuff (CyanoAcrylate), but in the times that I have used these two types, the CA works much better. The "superglue" stuff seems to be more brittle and cracks much easier. There is also an activator or sometimes called "a kicker" for CA that allows it to cure even faster. The regular model cement is only for styrene to styrene joints and melts them together to form a bond. Hope this helps. - Walter
