BNC adapters, banana plugs, work just like LEGO's!

Not sure on the numbers but can see you didn't forget the terminating resistor   \$\Omega\$

My tangled and tossed about BNC assorted/mixed up connectors never looked that good  :clap:

Suggest to go the distance and Ebay surf some Barbie Doll and Ken clothing   

;D

I don't know what it is - but I've NEVER gone looking for BNC tees, yet I have more than enough for a sculpture like that.

Do they breed in dark corners or something?

That's something completely different alright. Nice one windsmurf. Hopefully, you won't need the one in the middle. ^-^

Wow, I used to do this back in the day when I was working.  I used every BNC Tee I could get my hands on but never showed it to anybody else for fear of mocking/derision/reprisals etc. I was always playing with the n-dimensional flexibility of n-1 Tees.

Can anybody show us other examples? Who can make the biggest one?  ;D
STAND BACK!  I'm going to try SCIENCE!

LOL, once you've gotten lots of Freestanding BNC Art experience under the belt   :clap: 

the learning curve is easier with a bag of mixed BSP air compressor fittings... I think     ???

 ;D

I don't have any of those but that could be fun!  Then we pressurize the whole thing at increasing levels... and take bets on which connection fails first!  :-/O

We could do something similar with the BNC art works as well... we'll need Joe and Dave's participation; Joe to provide kilojoules of power to drive into the artwork, and Dave to be the bookie to take bets on which connection makes the first/most magic smoke!  :-DD
