Best way to do end to end joints in 4 x 2 ? In other words to make
2 x 2.4's into a 4.8 ish length.

I was thinking either lap joint & glue & bolts or those spiky
washer things - joint doesn't have to be in line, just resist
deflection. Timber on edge.

Any thoughts?


Have you thought about using a 3.5m long nail?



Doh! Why didn't I think of that? Do Screwfix do them?



Nope but they have a subsidiary company...try
