Combining layers of paper with a glue (usually hard setting plastic, resin, or super glue) creates a material called micarta, which is amazingly strong and lightweight. It's what a lot of knife handles are made from.

I'm not certain someone's commented on this but a good way to reinforce super glue is to use baking soda. you put a little glue, then you sprinkle some soda on it very generously, then more glue, more soda, more gluye.... you get it. it's very solid, can be sanded and files, and can even be built up to replace broken plastic tabs in various components.

So, the TP idea kinda put you on the right track. One thing that people do with super glue is mix in baby powder to make a paste for extra structure. It's a really good way to prototype silly things, but is not always the most secure in the long term. Since you're usually using bondo on the exterior of those seams, it's probably fine.
