2.5" vacuum hose adaptor to two 1.3" hoses.

[wcarlsonM2NUS]

This is an adaptor for dust collection on my power saw. I want a single 2.5" hose split into two 1.3" hoses. Not sure of the best way to accomplish this. The inside needs to be somewhat smooth and the one connector does need to come off at an angle as depicted.

I greatly appreciate any suggestions.

You did not say how long the tubes should be but you can edit them is you desire.  Probably could be done with less steps but this is my model.

Thank you to everyone that responded. I apologize that I hadn't gotten back sooner. we had a couple of minor emergencies that had me occupied.
I appreciate the designs, I plan to study them to see what I can learn. They are all very good!

[wcarlsonM2NUS]

All the designs are good, but yours is the most interesting. I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with some of the tools you used. Would you mind giving me a brief overview of your steps?

Thanks!

@wcarlsonM2NUS -

the overall idea is to break it up into a series of 4 sided lofts that are easy for fusion to handle, and create a patch from surface edges that are also easy for fusion to handle.

sketch 1 lays out basic location of then ends of the pipes.

sketches 2,3,4 each have a circle used to set pipe diameter and to extrude the initial pipe ends from.

these sketches also have a 4 sided polygon inside the circles  used to split the pipe ends into 4 segments.  these are the segments used for the lofts.  I left the lines for the polygon free to move so I could drag them around after lofting to tweak the loft visually for better surface quality.  

loft 3 needed a little extra help to get a good shape, so sketch 5 was used for a rail.

the relative geometry of the edges from the lofts (and the original extrudes) creates a boundary that can produce a decent patch. 

If your interested in learning and understanding the approach, I would suggest studying  each feature in the timeline.  when you come across something you don't get, come back and ask questions.
