Larry it seems that you are looking for an all inclusive and exclusive panacia of gluedom. It ain't there. I don't think there is one glue for all jobs, tasks, and screwups.
In my stash I have a range of CAs from thin to thick as well as Polyurethane and the afore mentioned Titebonds I, II, & III. (Bad luck with Elmo, Elmo no more for me except with paperdolls)
Bill said " I laughed at the oldtimers still using regular glue, like they were still riding around in
model Ts with their glue pots a-boiling... "
Well, I am building a wood body
Model T as we speak and have used everything from Epoxy to CA including Polyurethane, The trim is held on with Titebond III (glued and clamped no metal fasteners)
My suggestion is get some of what you need for the particular task at hand and remember how it worked for you and adjust your future adventures to what you have learned. Trying to sort a solution to which glue is best from the varied opinions of some of the most opinionated persons in the kingdom is like taking a Pepsi/Coke test and someone throws in 7Up.
