If you buy and use a two ounce bottle of glue in your build you will get some gas off but it will be close to two ounces of added weight. It isn't like you are adding bricks but if a part fits well you don't need a lot of glue.
I don't have a band saw in my shop either but how much difference do you see between cutting a stick with a band saw or a scroll saw. My scroll saw is right next to my sander. If all you had was a band saw and you needed to cut inside lightening holes in a part then you would be wishing for a scroll saw. No mater what it is you are doing there will always be a tool that sounds better then the ones you have. I would like to have an orbital sander in my shop but I will have to be content with the one at my wood working club. Even if I was given the sander I wouldn't have the room for it anyway.
