Acetone (also known as fingernail polish remover) is a super-fast and super-strong way to join this plastic together. Use it for sticking together areas that don't have paint on them. If either, or both of the surfaces have paint, you might be better off using the Ape Glue mentioned in method one.

The pictures below demonstrate how well the acetone fuses the plastic together. In my test, the CD broke before the acetone joint let go. It only takes a drop or two of this solvent to do the job. Clamp the parts together with clothespins for a few minutes and you are ready to go.

I'm a refugee from Los Angeles, living in backwoods Puerto Rico for about 35 years now and loving it. I built my own home from discarded nylon fishnet and cement.
