Thanks. I extend the steerer tube by welding more 1 1/8" tube on top of the existing tube. I use a 40-50mm length of 1" steerer as a internal plug and weld it all together. I make sure the seam is within the head tube and use v block to make sure everything is straight.
Some framebuilders finds this bad practice, so I can't recommend you doing it.

What have you used on the headset/steerer to replace the quill? I'm doing a very similar project and this is nice and tidy. I like.
