Never had any complaints from my customers, but then you can't see that an
extra piece has been added. At least not the way I do it. I have some old
spoon busks which are way too short, but work fine when I tape the extra
piece on.

Suzi,
Can you describe the way you attach an extra busk piece, as it must be
different to the method Deredere has seen if one is obvious and the other
isn't. I'm assuming you would have to use gaffer tape (AKA duct tape) for
the strength and I'm wondering how you would get the requisite strength in
the join without creating lumps in the finished corset.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
