Over the years I've often done the opposite by putting a resistor
between
wiper and low end and another from wiper to high end.
just in case I've missed something over the years is there a way of
say
converting a 20K pot to a 100K pot, with full range from bottom to top
?

Add 4 off 20K fixed resistors in series, with a shorting switch across
each (or a rotary selector switch). You should get "steps" of 20K with
a 20K range adjustment in each step (i.e. 100K variable down to 80K; 80K
variable down to 60K: 60K variable down to 40K: 40K variable down to 20K
& 210K variable down to 0).
