Do I create three seperate bars and merge/blend them together, or do I create a single bar and bend it? Can anyone shed light on how to do either? Whats the best way to achieve this?

Frames is another option, but would be too complex here.

Where would we be without sat-nav?
 
If I can figure out how to move objects around, assembling them, that would be a major step. Pity its not a case of just placing one object on top of another!
 
rpjd, in newer versions it's close to that simple, just bearing in mind you usually need to constrain all 6 degrees of freedom.

RPJD,

Give us a description of what you are trying to assemble and we can give you some pointers.
