I actually may have misread the original question, so I apologize for being kind of arrogant as far as my comment if that's what it sounded like.

None-the-less, I think they meant one of two ways and I have attached a pic of the 2 instances I have in mind. If the original topic starter would confirm which one they mean, I will be happy to explain it more in depth if needed..

(The only extra thing I did was to slice the parts down the middle to show more clearly the holes I created).

Parts attached made in SolidWorks btw.
