Fargo sells some lens cement that cures with UV (otherwise called "sunlight"!
;^).  Check a hardware store -- it comes in a red syringe, marked "Duro
Crystal Clear"!

We just soak the element in acetone, clean off all the old cement, put a
(bubble free) drop on the center of the concave element and press the convex
element onto it, squeezing out the excess cement.  Clamp with locking tweezers
with pads on the legs, put in a window for a day, and presto!  Works great,
been doing it for years now!
