I am gluing up a turning block; sandwiching spalted maple between wenge.
What glue to use? Is PVA adequate, or polyurethane, or epoxy?

Yesterday I turned a plate that was simply taped onto the faceplate; so I
expect PVA will do fine, but I would rather benefit from other's experience
than my own.

You're right, you're making too much of it. PVA is stronger than the
wood itself, especially when you have such a large glued surface.
