Actually it is possible to do with out having angled barbs. It would take some time and milling but if you took a square chunk of copper and drilled/milled out the center with a hole that would fit tightly enough around the round HS you could drill a hole sidways through the copper and then another strait down to intersect and but a barb on top, then for the other side drill a hole on the bottom sideways and then another strait down to intersect and another barb on top. Then thread and cap the side drilled holes. water would then swirl down or up the block and out the outlet! I don't think it would be a performance king but it would be cool non the less.

here is a quick half assed drawing of what I mean:


[edit] BAH!!! Nevermind. I see the thing doesn't spiral. [/edit]
