Default RE: Joining a V-Tail

I was going to add the post crash picture to this thread for full documentation of this method of joining a V-Tail. But I guess I threw the remains away before the picture session. However, the mid-air that destroyed both aircraft broke the tail a couple inches from the joint. It has also survived another mid-air that took out the other airplane. So I think this method is quite strong, ie, stronger than the wood used to make the tail. I pulled up this thread because I couldn't remember what pitch I used for the teeth, as I am joining a couple more tails tonight.
