4-way 3/4" PVC Connector

This versatile 4-way PVC connector is a game-changer for building projects that rely heavily on PVC piping. Its unique shape makes it nearly impossible to find in hardware stores, primarily because it lacks practical applications in plumbing, which is PVC's primary use case. However, PVC also excels as a cost-effective and supportive building material for prototypes and projects, making this connector a valuable addition to the world of PVC connections. The design can be scaled up or down to fit any size PVC pipe or other piping with a hollow circular hole in the center. By utilizing a hexagonal shape, this connector provides a flat, solid stick that prevents warping during printing. A polygonal shape also offers better fastening capabilities compared to a circular shape due to air displacement and the challenges of achieving a perfect fit. Creating two circular objects that form a tight seal may seem straightforward in theory, but it's surprisingly difficult to execute in practice. If you think you can improve this design or make it more efficient, feel free to do so and share your improvements - I'm always eager to see innovative solutions. This connector is an essential tool for creating a wide range of PVC-based projects, so keep on building!
