 When exporting to .ps1xml file, `Export-PSTypeExtension` has a dynamic parameter, `Append`. This allows you to combine multiple type extensions into a single file. If you intend to use a property set, create that file first. Then append your custom type extensions to that file.
 
+Here's how this might look.
+
+First, create a property set file.
+
+```powershell
+New-PSPropertySet -Typename system.io.fileinfo -Name TimeSet -Properties "Name","Length","CreationTime","LastWriteTime" -FilePath c:\work\file.types.ps1xml
+```
+
+I'll define a few type extensions.
+
+```powershell
+Add-PSTypeExtension -TypeName system.io.fileinfo -MemberType AliasProperty -MemberName Size -Value Length
+Add-PSTypeExtension -TypeName system.io.fileinfo -MemberType ScriptProperty -MemberName ModifiedAge -Value {New-TimeSpan -Start $this.lastwritetime -End (Get-Date)}
+```
+
+I'll even add a second property set to the same file using these new extensions.
+
+```powershell
+Export-PSTypeExtension -TypeName system.io.fileinfo -MemberName Size,ModifiedAge -Path c:\work\file.types.ps1xml -append
+```
+
+I'll end up with this file:
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

+This file was created with New-PSPropertySet from the
+PSTypeExtensionTools module which you can install from

+
+I can put the `Update-TypeData` command in my PowerShell profile to always have these extensions. Or I could share the file.

 ## I Want to Try
 
 You can find sample and demonstration type extension exports in the [Samples](./samples) folder. When you import the module, this location is saved to a global variable, `$PSTypeSamples`.
