When my fork and pin tiller gave up the ghost, I laminated in new
hardwood materials to make the tiller a yoke and pin.
I.e. a hole for the rudder post surrounded completely by wood.
A pick axe handle is usually specified to use the toughest wood
available and would be a very suitable basis, I reckon.
