Default Broken neck repair

So I decided to buy a guitar to practice repairs. I bought this guitar for the cost of a couple sets of elixirs. So if I make a mistake, no worries.



As you can see, broken neck. My plan is to us a Bessey clamp from the sound hole to the head stock (by stacking blocks inside), and a couple clamps on the fretboard.

Does this seem reasonable?

Do I need to make any precautions with glue around the truss rod?

I am planning to use Titebond III for the glue, any issues with mahogany and yellow glues?

BTW, man is this guitar cheap, painted fret markers, glued in saddle, finish (dip coated?)

Thanks,
