I know I have a center sleeve for that. I'll send it to you, just have to dig it out. Shoot me an email at: k20mike at yahoo .com and remind me. I don't get here too often.

I used to do that on my 2 stroke pipes for my dirt bike. It does work it also might work on the hutch frame because I think the wall is thin enough. Not sure if the chrome will survive or not but it's worth a try.
