Thanks Tim,

 

I guess that I am trying to find that person who is interested and willing to do these in 3D printing.  I can provide more photos.

Anyone with 3-D skills and a 3-D printer could make these - And happily the resolution of
them (smoothness) is not critical. What do you think? They could even be shaped to match
the curvature of existing models.

Rich,

 

The special thing I am looking for is the round riveted plate around the fitting, plus, it would be nice to have just the round riveted plate without a fitting, which you can also find on cars where the interior coils have be inserted.

 

Thanks,

Steve Hile

Precision has a bunch of pipes and fittings that might work?
