    Try Sterling Instrument. Their website is down at present, but not for good, I hope.

    add url for sdpi

    Might be of use - less than 3 bucks each and they have nearly 50 in stock?
    I've been looking for some larger and happened on MSC as an option.

    If metal is OK - how about McMaster - for gear stock - cut your own to length?

    Stock Drive site ( http://www.sdp-si.com/ ) is down too BUT, they do carry spur gear stock.

    Experience is the BEST Teacher. Is that why it usually arrives in a shower of sparks, flash of light, loud bang, a cloud of smoke, AND -- a BILL to pay? You usually get it -- just after you need it.
