Connecting pipes

Hi,

I'd like to draw a network of connecting of pipes (like that 3D pipe
screen saver). Supposed I have the coordinates stored in Coord, and
I'd like to connect, say, Coord[[4]] to Coord[[2]], etc.

I figure I could use the cylinder function (damned Euler angle!) to
draw a single pipe, but haven't quite figured out how to connect them
together. Any suggestion?

Thanks

PS. Bonus if I can do it with cartesian coords.
