Tiles for Glue Tests

It was finally time to pick a glue to use when assembling a few different projects over the Halloween weekend. There was a slight problem, though. Or a few problems. Problem 1 - I had no idea what glue to use for plastic. Problem 2 - these projects were using multiple _kinds_ of plastic, which can be notoriously hard to fuse together.

I've used PlasticWeld in the past, but it's a pain to use, mildly toxic, and the last bottle I had dried up years ago. A trip to the craft store ensued, with dire consequences: there are a lot of different glues, and all of them make claims of bonding _anything to anything_. So I did what
any curious person with very little free time on their hands would do: set myself up to systematically test as many different glues as I could get my hands on.

The tests are fairly straightforward:

- Test how well each glue bonds together three different types of plastic: ABS, PLA, and PET
- Each glue and material combination will undergo two different test
