I use uhu all purpose clear glue.
Solvet based and as well as glueing I reckon the solvent does a little dissolving as well.
Makes a really strong bond anyway :-)
Super/crazy glue I find is too brittle.
print pen is a bit awkward.
Not sure how ytou'd glue the middle of a piece with a dremel ?

I use this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SCIGRIP-4-Ac...0AAOSwpRRWoJ8g
It is a solvent that melts the two sides together.

We use either epoxy or an all purpose contact adhesive.
Something like standard UHU or UHU Por works very well.

I tried everything.
This is the only thing that worked....at least for my applications. I needed a VERY strong permanent bond.
This stuff melts a thin layer on both parts, fuses the melted plastic together then hardens. Once done it's one piece. Cannot separate.
