Of course this only works with ABS.  For PLA, I use either CA glue (cyanoacrylate/crazy glue) or epoxy if a I need a more reliable bond.

Bondene works by dissolving a thin layer of plastic material on each surface to be joined. Once the cement evaporates, a continuous solid weld is formed — one as strong as the surrounding plastic.
