An ultra-cheap acrylic glue for small parts is Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish. It dries glossy and clear. There's also a matte version. They are fairly thick in consistency. I think both are quite a bit stronger than acrylic clear, but that's a theory, not a proven fact. At most art stores, you can get a big jar for very small money.
