Connecting tubes together.

jonathan_sawyer

As you can see in the photo, there a gap created when these three tubes connect/intersect. I was wondering, is there a way to remove this gap? Like make it so that all three tubes connect together smoothly?

There are lots of ways to do this: Revolve, sweep, loft.

Here is one method:

• Start with solid cylinders. This will let you have a clean interior with the final step.
• Create a sketch of the open portion of the joint.
• Revolve that sketch and add the new part to the existing parts.
• Hollow the ends.
