Okay, I just called Lowe's (Orleans) & they have them in stock 1/4" straight unions, 90's, tee's & shut-off's.
Off to the plumbing Aisle (#36) ...

Home Depot and Rona also have them.
I normally go to HD personally.
They are in the plumbing section and come in the little white bags.

You can buy all the lines and fitting you need fro pretty cheap

I thought that I had seen them at HD or Rona before - but - I usually don't remember the section when I get to the store. They can be hard to find & the staff almost never know what you're talking about.

I did make it to Lowe's & picked up the fittings - now, time to bang my head on the cabinet & plumbing and get this puppy installed!
