Since I started playing around with segmenting last year, I switched to using T-88 epoxy. This was a big improvement for me, an upgrade from the JB Weld I'd been using mostly to that point. I still use JB Weld when I want to mix a pigment in and use it say for an inlay (which I've been doing with my laser engravings), but I use T-88 for any structural glue-ups.
For anyone interested in finding the strongest bond they can for gluing tubes, segments, etc. you might find this paper informative:
There are some very interesting tips in here, including how to effectively use this to bond highly porous woods, oily woods, metal surface prep and the like.
