A friend wants 5" of chromed 1" pipe. Copper would do as I could get it plated, but does anybody know where to get it from ?

ISTR Southern Ireland still uses imperial sizes?
The 1" refers to internal diameter, making it approximately equivalent to metric 28mm, so too big. I suspect the OP must do the rounds of the metal stockholders to find something suitable. They don't seem to mind doing small jobs. I got a single rod of 20mm box section mild steel off them without them complaining.

Motorbike acessory shop?

Interesting, It might be best to ask one of my Irish customers then
As a biker, I would have thought he would have looked in that direction, but, maybe not.
Perhaps I should post in UKRM (only 1933 unread messages in there atm ...)
Would brass do?

What do you want it for, you could just use a worktop leg. Wickes have them in 1" chrome. Isn't 2 metres a bit excessive if you only want to use 5"?

You mean 5' then.
Beautifully. Things like old car rads and spotlights were made of brass.
