Wood as Balsa? White/PVA Glue

Metal, either CA/Superglue or a 2 part epoxy

One option is Carpenters' yellow glue (aliphatic resin), such as Titebond has in their range-tacks faster than PVA, sands better and is stronger.Boatbuilding epoxy,such as WEST System, is another alternative, it also bonds metal extremely well.
