That would totally work too!What about a piece of thick wall brass pipe to press fit over your 4140? That would bring up the diameter a bit less expensively and be purty.
Well these are nice!

Sure, shoot me a PM with what you're looking for and we can see what they say for shipping.Ya,,,, cheater... lol
Speaking of cheating, if you're thinking about ordering from PM they have a couple of things I'm interested in if you want to split shipping. If the shipping cost is acceptable.
Yes brass has now become "precious metal" In terms of investment that's pretty good return.I find they are now charging over 7x what I paid.
Always on the lookout. Can you shoot me a pic?David,
I have some brass bushing material that is about 3". Quite a heavy wall. Are you still looking?
