I finally remembered where I saw the information on gluing UHMW polyethylene. Problem is that I am not sure if this stuff sticks to wood... :)

This is an Adobe Acrobat document about an adhesive used to glue UHMW to some materials, but wood is not mentioned.
http://www.alhyde.com/Adhesivechart.htm
This is a chart for gluing hard to glue materials. UHMW is not specifically mentioned, but HDPE and LDPE are on the list. UHMW is a high molecular weight HDPE, so the same adhesive should work.
Good Luck!
Bob
