Question, Well 2 to be exact.
#1 Where would I find a supplier that has the Oxy tubes to connect 3 oxycons?
#2 I have a Chile Pepper kiln that is shedding the fiber on the door, It really makes a mess of things. How do I fix it or do something to keeping it from shedding. Is this normal for the Chile Pepper?

What Oxy cons are you running? it gets a little complicated when you have different output pressures/volumes.
Have you applied a ridgedizer or any other treatment to the fiber?

I'd call Jenken and ask what they suggest on the kiln.

My local hardware store has clear tubing in various sizes that I use for oxygen when I have barbed fittings.
Pet stores with fish tank supplies is another source.
They may have multiple barb 'tee' fittings as well.
Do you have access to kiln firing paper?
Some of that will hold together at the lower annealing temps we lampworkers use and can be stich wired over the fiber.

I have used aluminum foil to protect the fibers from contact and hence fraying with thin picture wire as a stitching thread to tack it position on my home made mail box kiln.
