      Yeah I was surprised that even Blackwoods who seem to have everything, have never heard of cross pieces. fortunately I didn't need them in the end, but if anyone knows where to get them please post it here.

        Try Harvey Hose at Minto. They used to be at padstow. They have just about everything. I am not sure they would have small fiittings but they are likley to have them.

            If none of those places have them, I would suggest there is a good chance thay may not even be made. Maybe you should try to get in contact with a manufacturer to see if they actualy do them?

              It might be quicker to make one out of 2 elbows with half their bends cut off and brazed back to back!

                Hi All,

                The expensive way to do it is use hydraulic fittings and adaptors, link below for you to peruse.

                http://www.pirtek.com.au/HOApps/pirw...+-+Rev+2.2.pdf

                The cheap way to do it is to buy 2 T pieces and joiner. Use the joiner to join two T's and you have a cross, OK admitedly it looks more like an H but you will still end with 4 ports through which fluid can be moved. This can be done with cheap brass or galv plumbing fittings.

                Happy building...
