may just be the ork in me.. any bit is really usable
but I wanted to find out if anyone has had success with particular glues.. i.e. cynoacrylic or the plastic glues
how it responds to tanax, etc
some bitz might be useful for off color necron rods or other coolness.
thoughts?

As far as I know (never used Legos in kits myself - though I've played with them- but I have seen many others use them), I don't think you can chop them up - they're too brittle and would most likely lose their structural integrity. I believe they're an ABS type plastic so Plastruct Weld glue should work on them.
You should check out the WIP forum (lots of users use Legos there)

I did a few lego/ork conversions here and there. it is prettyx hard to cut with a normal modeling knife, and normal plastic glue won't work on it. try superglue adn lots of it.

I feel like that would add tremendously to my already roadmap like scars on my hands/fingers.
