Fourmost Products, and called "small fuel fitting size 1/16 inch (1.6mm) I.D.
(inside diameter) No.FOR104". I called them and asked to buy just T's. He sold
me 20 T's for US$10 plus $4 shipping. They work great and fit perfect.

He said they had made some custom train wheels for someone's LEGO project.

Presumably that was Ben Fleskes... (see http://www.bigbenbricks.com/)

Interesting....they make custom plastic parts.
This is not an advertisement. I am not affiliated with the company. I am just
passing on a source for plastic pneumatic T's that work great.

I have been very pleased with the wheels Ben commissioned and it's in part a
testimony to the molder he chose (and in part to his engineering work!) so if it
was this firm, that's additional confirmation that they do good work!

Hope that helps.
