Do you keep wondering why you need two connector/collector pairs to move stuff between ships/station instead of the conveyor system? Well, I finally found a workaround!

Changelogs

Uploaded a Self-extracting version that is compatible with all game versions
Version 1.1.1
updated to game version 01.035.005
Do you keep wondering why you need two connector/collector pairs to move stuff between ships/station instead of the conveyor system? Well, I finally found a workaround!
Adds 2 new conveyor tubes (for small and large ships) under the name of "Conveyor Tube Connector" that lack Mount Points on one side. Allows connected ships and stations (via the Merge Block) to use the conveyor system while not permanently merging them.
There are now 2 ways to install my mod: Self-extracting and manual. The former will auto-detect the path to your MODS folder and do all the heavy-lifting (YAY!). The latter is a zip file that must be extracted at %AppData%/SpaceEngineers/Mods (replace forward slashes to backward ones). Simply copy and paste that path to Windows Explorer's address field and the actual path will be resolved.
ATTENTION! Don't forget to remove previous versions of my mod! In doubt, delete your old CubeBlocks.sbc and let Steam re-download that file.
To uninstall my mod, delete the folder "Unmergeable Conveyor Tubes" at %AppData%/SpaceEngineers/Mods (replace forward slashes to backward ones). Done!
Random Facts: The Large Ship/Station block is a copy of "Conveyor Tube" block. The Small Ship block is a copy of "Conveyor Frame" block.
