Letters from Combining Characters and Box-drawing Characters?

Causser

When all-caps and bold isn't enough.

I want to make characters exclusively from combining characters and box-drawing characters.

The problem encountered is that diagonal lines (and therefore glyphs which normally require diagonal lines) are difficult to render appealingly. V? X? K? Z? How should I go about 'making' these using box-drawing characters and combining characters, while maintaining visual appeal?
