Mixture of miss measuring and changing of products to get something to fit the sink has left me with the below issue.
Plumbing coming from the sink is not fixed yet, on the pipe on the vertical down was just a scrap being used to see if I could force it, trap off to the right a second sink is also behind/to the right.

Can I cut the the collars down to about 50% each?

I'm not sure how I can get it to work otherwise.
My only other thought is cut and rejoin the long horizontal to bring the tees horizontal and vertical on the sink waste straight down, along with appropriate BSP/weld/multifit connectors.

Changing the elbow to Male / female (conversion bend) instead of female / female might solve the problem.

If not then turn the tee to 45° and use a 45° bend, if there's enough room and if the tee isn't already glued.
 
That might do it.

I did think about changing the angle of the tee but then realised the other sink will have an odd angle trying to meet into an other tee.

I also wondered about flexipipes.

First picture in this thread is the sink on the left, the one on the right the sink hole is further right than the waste through the wall.

Picture is of the double sink and trap set up.

In my head I was recreating a double sink and twin appliance waste system.
