Trying to track down a length of pipe

    SORTED! Thanks folks.

    Howdy. I'm looking to buy a length of aluminum pipe.

    1.6m in length, about 65mm diameter.
    EDIT: 65mm seems a tad much actually. 30-45mm might be more reasonable

    Unsure of what thickness I need it just has to be able to put up with a fair bit of abuse. It doesn't actually need to be aluminum either just strong yet lightweight.

    This is what I'm trying to do with it:

    I'm in Dublin, on the southside. Tried Brooks and Heatons without luck.

    Thanks for any leads.
