    You need to look up model engineering supplies and do an internet search.

    You are looking for a size called "BA".

    I do not know what the 00 equivalent is but I think its around BA 11 or BA 10.

    Incidentally I tried BA 10 nuts bolts and although they look good, they are chunky and the metal has sharp edges.

    Are you sure you don't need size 0?

    Default pins and washers in uk

    That shows how naive I am

    o are probably the ones, I want to buy brass rod and appropriate washers

    I would rather try to make my own along with scales

    The website I think you want is here:

    http://www.maccmodels.co.uk/Productlist_body.htm

    And the product I think you want is here:

    Macc Model Engineers Suppies LTD

    Remember to go for brass, not steel.
