ADV a member here has done some...

I am kinda sorta leaning towards 7/8" brass hex and a lathe to make some but I am notorious for slow...

Meaning ifn I cannot get buddies lathe outta storage...not really wanting to pay to machine them.

Brass just made me think of a banjo fitting.... then you could use anything you want for returns especially compression fittings. It would still take milling... but it may be something that can be done on a drill press
