I am looking to create a 4x1.5m (6m total length approx) CF boom around 52mm OD.

Can you create 4 sections that can screw tight into one another to create this long pole?

Would it be better to use a cut length of 47.5 mm ID or 46mm ID to slide into a length of 50.8 mm ID 
in order to join 2 lengths of 50.8 mm together ? 
Would the 47.5 mm ID be too tight to bond inside ?
