kyle,

thanks much. once you said what i was looking for and the link i went and did some searching.

found this place.. http://www.sheffieldsupply.com/ they are 60cents a piece if buying 10. so thats what i did. seems a tad cheaper then the place you listed for your future buying. exactly the same 18% nickel/silver rodstock.

thanks again for the material type.
