Perhaps this will help. 5 way connectors

Your idea would work but it w(c)ould create a crease that is hard to keep clean.

r2rusmc, thank you for the link to 5-way connectors -- I was looking for some to make my Atom sphere and to do other things. Thanks, again.

Go to Home Depot and get them there. (or Lowe's) They also have all the other PVC stuff and rope, sisal, marine rope, etc.

Look, at Home Depot, go to the Plumbing dept. and ask for PVC supplies. Then describe the 5-way connectors and the size (like 1/2") and they wll find it (in batches of PVC supplies) These are there and very useful in many jobs. Just don't believe the person that you talked to. Find a supervisor. Take a picture if necessary. I know they have them!
