Hi, I am replacing my bath mixer taps, the bath is free standing and the taps are on a pedestal next to it. The original taps are 20 years old and the size is 1 inch thread.
The new taps are 3/4 inch. In pic 1 you can see the set up is now. I have brought new 3/4 inch pillars as shown in pic 2.
My question is I don't seem to be able to get hold of chrome elbows, male one end for the taps and female the other to fit on the pillar, does anyone know if I can get hold of these?
I suppose I have the option of buying taps that will fit down onto pillars but I was hoping the elbows would give me a little extra reach into the bath.
Thanks for any advice.

Thanks, I was hoping the female side would have a nut with rubber washer, I'm not too sure how I would tighten this one and for it be pointing in the right direction also how would it be sealed?
 
Show us a pic of the tap thread.If it's just a normal 3/4 tap thread then just buy what i showed above but both ends female and use some ptfe tape to seal it.
