Chugs and other scrap built boats

Some of these builders have been using thin plywood panels for moulds and they use some quick hardening glue to "tack" panels together edge-to-edge. Anybody here having an idea about what kind of glue?

Hot glue guns seem to be widely used. Not sure of the specific make up of the glue, but you can buy the guns and glue sticks at Biltema.
 
Naah, that was my first thought, but looking closer, they seem to squeeze a liquid from a small bottle.
 
I used hotglue quite a lot as a temporary hold. Worked great for tacking bulkheads. Zero time lost. Maybe melted in postcure? Touche’

clear liquid glue probably super glue maybe w/accelerant spray
