Not in person, but maybe online - try Ebay. I was looking for a certain length of (hollow) metal rod, a bit like scaffolding (in fact I think it was a length of scaffolding in the end) and I found a guy on Ebay. He made loads of different types, solid and hollow. Try searching for 'steel bar' or 'metal rod' or any combination of those and you might find him. Sorry I'm lazy else I'd go find him for you

I did a search on ebay for stainless steel rod and got lots of results most of which were for welding rods

After a particular alloy? Any decent steel supplier should have SS rod. Yellow Pages for a supplier near you.

Cheers

go to your local industrial suppliers or just pull the phone book out.

5mm stainless bar is pretty common so i'd imagine most would stock it/have in next day but minimum order will be 3m.
