so it is around if you hunt for it.

good comany to deal with took about 10 days to do the custom order

How did you find the "fit" when when you actually put the machined parts into your 1.6mm-walled tube? Was it a good fit?

What keeps these parts in the tube? Are they just a very tight fit? Or does the action of screwing in a screw into the thread tighten it up?

Smart Aluminium has 1" (1.6mm) in stock at $20.80 per 6.5m length and they will cut it for me.
