I've used the spray adhesive (the 3M 77 stuff works very well), regular contact cement, water-based contact cement and even rubber cement. the trickiet turned out to be the rubber cement..had to get just the right amount of drying before puting the pieces together or else it would delaminate easily. these days I usually use the watyer based contact cement (no smell) and place a couple of heavy books on the sheets I'm laminating overnight. I've never had any of it come apart. I know some people have used superglues, but superglues are brittle, and I've had poor luck with them. After laminating the sheets, I use a sharpened circular cork borer (old chemistry tool approximated by sharpened brass tubing) to get the size cylinder I want.
