I watched loads of videos on YouTube about this sort of thing while i was off work.
There were so many ways to fix plastics that i was quite amazed at how easy it could be and also the strength of some of them.
YouTube is your friend here because you would never guess some of the ways.
Using super glue mixed with baking soda AND powdered pencil lead, or powder key lock lube, is a good way but a word of caution it goes so damn hard that you can't even drill or saw it once it's set so you need to be spot on first time with that method before it dries.
Also, super glue mixed only with baking soda, or even white polystyrene can have some unusually tough final mixtures, but watch the videos online to give you a much clearer idea how and where to do things.
And if you need to copy broken plastic parts you can use kids play putty to properly shape stuff with to get things spot on.
