Joining 1 inch SS tubing
I need to join two pieces of 1" SS rail tubing. I would rather avoid time and expense of getting it welded. Does anyone know where I can find a straight 1" coupling? Internet search does not find one. Any ideas
thanks

take a caliper and measure the internal diameter. Then find something that fits that dimension and slide the outer stainless over it
