Hmm...I'll try to remember to take pics with the digital...

The cyanoacrylate glues? The really stinky kind, like 'Superglue'? (We use something similar at work to glue skin in routine spays so we don't have to take sutures out later...^_^;) Yeah, tricky stuff. Less is more, and you might try putting a rub of petroleum jelly around the screw part of the tube so it won't glue itself shut.

Yeah, the Triceratops had a little rubber band wind-up motor, but the design called for gluing the body together in such a way you could never get it open again if something broke. Which of course it did. So I yanked the key/winder out and glued the legs in a standable position and it just lives in my shower window now. ^^; During the short time it walked, we had fun scaring the cat...
