Dont have that problem with my Colchester.
Well anyway to answer your question.
Thread both ends of the 200mm piece. Cut in half and join with a coupler, then thread the other ends. Piece of cake.
Sorry can't be done, try again

What you mean is , you have never tried it so you DONT KNOW.
Why dont you get down from your high horse and post the answer.?
Ill never be able to state my findings on another forum at this rate and searching the net for anything related to nipples will give the answer to anything but pipethreading short stubs in a threading machine.

What I mean is it can't be done using an socket.
And yes I have made hundreds over the years.
You accused me of not being a pipefitter, now you're either an authority who knows what you're talking about or you should keep it shut.
Bismillah - you haven't insulted me for the best part of an hour, and I'm feeling a bit left out.
And I can't believe you're admitting defeat - not after all the times you've been kicked in the head and still come bobbing back for more.
You must have something left; maybe some invented basis for accusing me of being an amateur? Or a witty re-arrangement of the letters of my user name? Come on - throw me a crumb.

I could do it in a lathe with a socket. I could add some extra piping to the length to give a better grip in the chuck.
But then you dont have any piping left over do you ? Just 200mm.
Then I would remove a section from the installation as its clearly not completed anyway and join the short stub to this section using a socket and complete the threading.

As it happens one of the best pipefitters I have had the pleasure of working with retired on Friday age 76 and as fit as a fiddle.
I shall really miss the oldbugger after working together for 30years
Anyway back to the problem, how are we going to make the close tappered nipples so we can go home.
It's quite simple when you think about it.
If it makes a difference they are to connect two fittings together
Put a bra on it, then the nips are out of sight oops i'm on the wromg forum lol

No doubt like yourself he would need a lesson or two on the A frame.
Im not talking about stilson swinging pipefitters.
Copper pipe pipefitters who see nothing but copper day in day out who will have perhaps two or three A frames lined up for different size piping.
Two or three ton of the stuff delivered to the site for use over 4 to 6 week periods.
