Half and half joints would do this for you. Measure half the thickness
of
the timber and mark it from end to about four inches in. Do the same
with
another post. Cut down to half the thickness, then cut off from the end
to
the cut down.

You should have two posts that will marry up to give a full thickness
post
with a hidden joint. You can glue and screw through to make the join
good
and strong.

Cheers. Have made a couple up and they seem nice and strong. Joints are
not
extactly hidden due to lack of cutting skill but it'll all add to the
character of the shed.


I never get them exact either. :-) LOL
