    Hopefully someone nearby with a lathe that can turn down a couple of pieces of pipe 15cm length from 22mm OD to 19mm OD.

    Help!

    Ennistymon is not very nearby at all.

    Sounds straightforward enough, however depending on application - rolling to reduce diameter on a thin walled pipe might be more pleasant, useful and stronger method.

    Probably not available everywhere but try ringing any of the local engineering works, anywhere decent might have a lathe, or will defo know someone else nearby that can roll or turn.
