You could use a router table with a couple of pegs to turn the tube against
to set the depth assuming the ends of the liner are square. I've used this
countless times in a past career to edge items.

Yeah, a router occurred to me after I posted; l’ll look into this.

That’s a very clever idea that might well work. I’ll have to find
someone with a large enough mill, but that might work.
IMHO you would not do that on a mill but with a
hand held (smallish ) router.
Build a tool that keeps the router coaxial with the tube.
use a cylindrical router bit that has been profiled for the task.
just had a look:

You are probably "about there" when you reduce the guide roller diameter.
you then run the tool on the outside for one tube
and on the inside for the other tube.
I use NOVOTEX ( phenolic / fiber composite ) for
little bits and pieces and it submits reasonably
well to carbide tipped router bits.
Beware the dust.
