Thoughts? Ideas? Solutions?

I'm not familiar with the "all-thread" you talk about. But is it similar to maybe a steel strip that you could locate along both sides of the "expanding" part, then have rods, threaded at both ends that go through holes in the strips along the perpendicular sides, which have the nuts on them to pull the steel strips tight? Sorry, I'm trying to visualize a cure and putting into words is not an easy task.
Something like this seems like it would certainly do the trick.

So, use the all-thread with the steel strips I suggested?
