I'm making a 3D printed figurine/trophy for my friend as a gift, and I need to glue together base and the figurine itself (it's a giant amongus). My question is: is something like an instant glue, or just regular glue good enough for PLA, or do I need to by some special one?

@ultrahamster64 a good solvent is best in my opinion. Plastruct works well or plaweld.com
