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

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

As others said PVA is fine ... but...
between the very stable wenge and the less stable maple you may get some
creeping, and if you end up with a fine reflective finish you may have a
slight glue line. Epoxy or cascamite would be better for that reason, but
they may blunt your turning tools a bit more.

I did a search and found cascamite is an English name for Urea-Formaldehyde
glue; but I don't find that for sale. Is it not used in the US?
