Maybe you could join the canes by inserting plastic joints in the ends.
The
type I am thinking of are those used for joining lengths of plastic pipe
in
fluid control systems, they come in mixed bore sizes and various
configurations of Y, T and 4 branch cross shapes as well as straight
through
ones. Just a thought


Or just slide short lengths of old hosepipe over the ends of
the canes to be joined.
