Any glue recommendations would be welcome

I'd recommend white glue such as Elmer's Glue All or the yellow Elmer's Wood Glue for wood to wood.   For wood to metal... either CA or epoxy.   Others will have their preferences but those are mine.  I like the Elmer's as alcohol easily breaks the bond if need be and removes the clue from the wood when need be.

Do a search here on Corel and Bellona (use both words) in the kit log area.   You should get hits.  Here's a link for the search:  https://modelshipworld.com/search/?q=corel bellona&quick=1

 

BTW, if you haven't, open a log.  It's the best way to get help and meet other builders.
