Need help finding a part

[slag]

I was given this structure:

and I'm missing this part:

Where can I get it? The tube going into it appears to be 3/4 inch.

Thanks,

What is the structure for? Hanging clothes? Monkey bars?

Is it aluminum, steel, or what?

Angled Y adapter in the plumbing section at Home Depot.

Actually, if that doesn't work - go to a sporting goods place with a camping section, they might have replacement elbows there. I'm assuming that's a canopy frame?

WTF is it and WTF is it for? Looks kinda cool though

does look similar to some of these canopy parts

I was researching a canopy for my car when I saw the thread so that was the first thing I thought of but, if it's a type of monkey bars, I don't think you'd want to use a fitting made for only holding up canvas + frame.

OWS tent?

I was at a boy scout committee meeting and a troop had some old gear they were throwing out. This was in a bag along with the top cover. It is missing all the bottom legs but I can make those easy enough. Looks like its just your ordinary older sun shade, however, I'm missing one of the corners. Its skewed at an angle, so a normal 90 degree 3 outlet fitting won't work. I went to home depot and Ace Hardware and none of them have an angled corner adapter like I need. I did find a metal one, but it was for 1 inch pipe and this is 3/4 inch. Could adapt it, but still, would rather have an original piece. No idea how old this is.

I was thinking I could use my bandsaw and cut a chunk of wood out that would work, but would rather not do that.

You might try this place:

We care a great selection of Canopy Replacement Parts. Some include Undercover, Norstar, Ez Up canopies and more parts. If you need a canopy part we are likely to have the part in stock.

Without knowing the exact brand and model, linking to the correct part will be difficult at best.

Thanks all for the advice, especially BoomerD.

I'm not sure if these are the right angle, but looks like it would work:
