   OK, I think I will get a nice fresh bottle of Elmers, and possibly a
showcase.  Now, has anyone been able to make nice siding for houses in
minifig or smaller scale?  I already have a good idea for roof shingles.
Thanks again!

more durable.  I do want to be able to dismantle it one day, though.  If
anybody has good ideas for this, please let me know.  Also, please let me
know any other good tips for making the model last longer.

  Here's a thought: Elmers glue disolves in water and water won't hurt • LEGO

the LEGO bricks.

I use Elmer's all the time, and have never had it damage any piece. Also, • you
don't even have to put it in water, it peels right off of the ABS.
