Answer to Question 1

Super and Crazy Glue (Cyanoacrylate) glue is a strong adhesive that bonds styrene to other plastics. White glue is a good choice for attaching boards to each other, but not for gluing architectural drawings to paperboard; it will warp the paper because it is water-based. A glue gun is good to quickly glue something, but it is not strong. Spray glue works well for adhering architectural drawings to paperboard, but it needs to be used in a well-ventilated area, it is also messy.
Transfer tape is an alternative to glue, which is a double-sided strip of pressure-sensitive glue. It is strong, instant, and can be used on paper, foam, foil, film, fabric, glass, plastic and wood. It also works well on styrene, as drips from other glue types will permanently styrene's surface.
