I don't think we could keep a perfectly straight line do you?

Imagine a cylinder that has a diameter of 3" and a length of 8". We would need to bring the length down to 7 3/4 in increments so we can fit it to the actual upper as we cut it down. Also the inside of the cylinder is hollow, we would be woring with something about 5/16" thick

I am assuming it is steel right? Let me check if we have a long reach large diameter mill. It only scares me cause with the small diameter mills you might end up with a deflection issue. But if I have an inch or bigger mill then it should be fine.
I am 5 minutes or so from the airport for a distance reference.
