Can someone tell me what the technical term is for those pins that pop up when an opening in a larger round tube slides over a pin in a smaller round tube? Thanks.

Reply:They are called quick release button connectors.  I have used them for projects before and I get them from McMaster-Carr.  Here is a link: http://www.mcmaster.com/#tube-connector-pins/=dbgz65
