Anyone near Epsom who can cut alloy pipe to precise length?

[Kermit power]

Afternoon all,

I'm trying to sort out an issue on my son's bike ( details here) which means I need to cut a length of 20mm outside diameter aluminium pipe to 37.4mm.

Now, I trust in my abilities to but through an aluminium pipe, but I'm less convinced about my ability (with the limited tools at my disposal, and without spending a fortune on new ones) to get the cut perfectly straight and at precisely 37.4mm, so I was wondering if anyone on here might be able to help?

Working to a tenth of a mm is just about DIY-able but if it needs to be very precise, take it to your nearest machine shop and ask them to do it properly.

If you are local to Tadworth/Sutton I have a chop saw which will cut ali tubing. Getting the length right is probably better for a bit of filing etc to get it 100 percent

That would be great, thanks! West Ewell to Tadworth isn't much of a schlep!

I'll ping you when it arrives to find out when would be convenient for you.
