How about the yellow and black "swivel connector"? It's a yellow 1-beam, with
knobs at each end, and two black rings wrapped around the middle, with a knob
on each ring. The rings can rotate independently, positioning the two knobs
anywhere around the axis of the yellow beam. The only limit is the black
knobs must have an angle of separation at least 90-degrees.
These would easily make a corner in a rectilinear (sp?) lattice. This this:

O- lines are black knobs, assume the standard 3D projection.

I've got a couple of these, they were in (I think) <set:3532>.
They'd be useful for octagonal buildings, too. :)
