For dangerous fumes (and, for the Pliobond and contact cement, anxiety over
placement -- once the rubber is on its way down to the bat, you aren't
going to be able to adjust it):

Goop
Plastic Rubber (essentially, black Goop)
The ultimate rubber cement, Pliobond
Solvent-based contact cement

For people-friendly gluing:

water-base contact cement
floor tile mastic (water base)
silicone rubber
if you're lucky, glue gun

Craig,
Sorry, it's been so long since I did it I don't remember what I used.
What do you mean, with my memory it could have been yesterday? :-)
It was nothing special, definitely not water soluble though. I'm pretty
low tech with things like that, and tend to use what's at hand.
Regards,
Dave Finkelnburg, feeling guilty for my lack of information
