Lengthing A Short Tang
#9
Ha camera a go Big Grin
First step is to cut the join I have done 2 types a square joint and a undercut joint I hope you can see in pic.Drill both ends of the join first .Offer both ends and markup the holes and drill.I have counter sunk two holes on one side ,the other just one to show the different finishes.

The 2 types of join.I have just used standered nails as rivets, showen against a commercial rivet.

I cut the head of one nail and put it through the hole that has been counter sunk on both sides.I leave aprox 1/8 th inch above the surface,note make sure the nail has a flat surface before peaning over. Join both pieces together put nail in other hole to hold piece in place.
