I have used with success (This is a US Brand, but read on) Loctite 495. This is a "professional" type of Cyanoacrylate glue, AKA Superglue in America. Go to your hobbyshop and get a high quality Cyanoacrylate, as the Discount store variety is not (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

After asking S@H about some Technic release dates (8457, 8458 - August 18; 8279 - August 21), I asked if they had any sort of description of 8279. Oddly enough, they do: (I guess S@H is the only place that does?) 456 (I think) parts, $70-something, (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

I've heard of varying results with the kind of plastic cement that is used to glue plastic models together. But do test any cement you buy on a small part of LEGO you can afford to lose before you start glueing pieces together with it. If the cement (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

Hello, I have just bought a box of used technic lego. Some of the studs (16x1) was broken so I wondered if it was possible to glue them together again, and what type of glue should I use. I live in Denmark, so try not to specify special american (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)
