well i have been searching all my hardware stores for the full x plumbing join and finally today they found me some :) on my mission i also found a supplier of vet tape (apart frm the vets).
so with x section joiners in hand and vet tape i finally made an orb.
the 3 amigos are still a little unsure of it but i did manage to get oxy to hop on long enough for me to snap a few quick pics.

they seem scared of it, so much so they wouldnt even go to play gym that it was hanging above. thats odd to me as they have never shyed away from any other toys i have made them, or even when i filled the spare cage with palm leaves. i guess this is quite large compared to other toys, that and they normally out of cage watching and ocassionally coming to visit as i make toys, but today they were still in their cage.
i have now taken it down and put it beside their cage and they slowly showing interest.
