I am looking for a connector to hook a cold water faucet and a hot water faucet(outdoor faucets) together This should be shaped like a y and have the proper fittings at the ends to hook up to the cold and hot water outdoor faucets and then hook up to the end of a regular water hose thus getting warm water, not hot or not cold. I saw someone had one a long time ago so I know they was such a thing at one time. Any info on this would be appreciated.

Use a y connector backwards. Almost all stores that sell hoses and sprinklers will have Y connectors. Find one of the flexible ones.
You will also need two adaptors that have two female ends. This means the adaptor will need to have the same connector that you normally screw to the tap, but on both ends. You can then connect the two taps together to come out one hose.
I know this is complicated, but it will work. If this is going to be a permanent setup then you might consider having a plumber connect the two water lines going to these outdoor faucets into one inside and replacing the outside tap with one tap for both lines much like any inside faucet would have. This will be slightly more expensive (likely in the $250-300 range if the lines are exposed inside) but will be more pleasing to look at, and will be much less likely to leak.
A hose setup with that many hand tightened connections is more likely to leak, and if its leaking hot water then that could be quite costly for you. Sources: my suggestion .
Not sure this is a good idea, but here are some parts that can do what you want. I also remember this item, but I have not seen it for many years. I remember it being used when I was very young for the old manual "wringer" washing machines.
These were often on the front porch or in a shed, there being no room for the heavy things in the house. A hose was run from the kitchen sink, which was modified as a hose bib. On wash day, the "y" adapter was screwed to the kitchen faucet, the garden hose attached to that, and the hose would fill the washer.
Automatic "spinning" washers eliminated the need for these. It was usually the job of one of the children to operate the kitchen valve according to shouted instructions by the operator of the washer. Children weren’t often let near the operating washer, for fear they would let their hand get pulled into the wringers.
This was true even after they invented the wringers that spring open when something too thick went between them. I remember that it was great fun to put wet clothes through the wringer. Hanging them on the clothesline, however, was painfully boring.
I am not certain which hardware stores will have all of these parts, but here is the manufacturer: Gruner Brass Fittings Corp. 173 Glenmore Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11212 Tel: 718-495-5820 / 800-579-7209 • Fax: 718-495-5824 And here are the pieces you will need. Note that the Y is backwards (that is, it is meant to split a single hose bib into two hoses.) So, to use it the way you want, you need the "adapters" shown.
It is also available with "valves" in each leg. 142 GARDEN HOSE "Y" - DIE CAST Use the following on what would now be the "outflow" end of the Y. You need one.
127 MALE HOSE TO MALE HOSE and on the input side, you need the following or two short hoses with female fittings on both ends. 132S FEMALE HOSE TO FEMALE HOSE, SWIVEL Or you can cut short lengths of hose and use the following "repair" fittings on each end. Note that hose comes in three different diameters.
You have to get the fitting size that matches the hose you have. 209 GHS HOSE BARB TO FEMALE GARDEN HOSE, SWIVEL 1/2 X 3/4 5/8 X 3/4 3/4 X 3/4 Here are some sites that claim to have all of these parts for sale: http://www.amazon.com Home Improvement › Outdoor Power Equipment › Watering Equipment › Hoses & Accessories › Parts I would have put these in the answer as widgets, but for some reason "Home Improvement" isn't in the search criteria, so all I get are "six packs" of the parts. Bring up the amazon.
Com home page, then click on the "shop all departments" button at the top left. Choose the "Home Improvement" link from the list. On the left in the "Browse" area, under "Lawn and Garden", select the "Watering Equipment" link.
On the left, under "Category" choose "Hoses and Accessories", then choose "Parts". This gets you down to about 500 possibilities. If you choose the "Gilmour Group" and one of the sellers, you'll see a much more reasonable list.

Assembling hoses Hose can be cut with a sharp knife pushing the hose against a scrap board. Don’t try to cut the hose by holding it in the air.
To assemble a barbed fitting to the hose, slip on a tubing band clamp, slip the barbed end of the fitting all the way into the hose, then tighten the clamp. Most hoses can be softened to slip on more easily by dipping the end in hot water (nearly boiling works best). Put a very little liquid soap or Vaseline® on the barbs, and the fitting slips in to the hose with no problem, assuming you have the correctly sized fitting for the hose diameter you own.

It is called a Washing Machine Y Mixer Hose.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
