Glad you liked the site
Krazy Glue is Expen$ive modeling CA glue.
If it works - you can control it, and afford it, let it rip.
If you want more for your money investigate the
"Zap-a-gap" series from the modeler outlets on the web.

CA is CA - you use whatever glue you have available and that you can afford. I have used various drug store super glues at one point or another. I have shyed away from them because they don't have a very good shelf life. But they hold plastic!

Keep hanging out Rock! It gets even better!
As far as glues go, I'll just repeat what the others have said. Whatever is available and what works for you, go with it. In time you'll have a nice selection of different glues for different tasks and applications. Each works better than another for differing situations.
Experience and experimentation are your best learning tools.

My comment on CA glue quality. I did not think cheap CA to expensive made a difference.. I had some CA elmers brand (cheap stuff). But then I bought the ZAP-A-GAP CA and it seems to hold better and longer for non-model applications where you need strength

Yep - for me too! Probably more than liquid cement itself.
