Is 3 3/4" x 13 swg copper tube no longer produced and if this the case so is there an alternative for the 1 1/2" Allchin Royal Chester ?

Roll it from sheet, butt strap on the outside, silver solder the joint. Use a few rivets or bronze screws to hold it whilst soldering, but don't make them very tight, there needs to be a small gap for the solder capillary action.
