I am probably making too much out of this, but it is my first time and all

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.


PVA is fine- but one thing you need to keep in mind is that it's going
to need to fully cure. The first time I did this, I let it sit for
about an hour, and it delaminated on the lathe. Better to let it sit
with the clamps on for more like 24 hours.
