Hi folks.
I have some aluminium pipe, 66 and 44mm (ish) diameter. This stuff isn't top quality, while it serves it's purpose as pipe it's not round. Or I guess it's round ish.
I could really do with this pipe being as round as possible. Unified? Standardised? Or is that wood?
Both pipe sizes have a wall thickness of 1.6mm so I don't have enough material to remove any. Does anyone have any advice on how this might be achieved? I've thought of making a brass or delrin 'bung' and kind of swaging it, I don't know how successful that would be. The final outer diameter isn't critical so this might work if I don't introduce any cracks.
Has anyone out there had to achieve such a pointless and time consuming exercise?!
Many thanks.
