Description
BB-8, sometimes spelled Beebee-Ate, is a BB unit astromech droid who operated approximately thirty years after the Battle of Endor. It had a dome head, similar to that of R2 series astromech droids, with the bulk of its body made up of a ball on which the droid's head rolled. BB-8 was mostly white, with some silver and orange on its body, as well as a black photoreceptor. The droid belonged to Resistance pilot Poe Dameron, whom he accompanied during his flights on his T-70 X-wing fighter.

No glue is required - but I recommend the following tools:
1) Tweezers to help bend the tabs that hold the model together
2) A Straight edge (such as a thin metal ruler) to held bend parts where necessary (I found the laser scored fold lines made this easy to do without the straight edge - but I can see it being helpful)
