Hi everyone, I am building a Tantillus and am in need of the rods for the laser-cut version. My own attempt at cutting them went pretty awfully. Would anyone be willing/able to sell me a set?

Thanks for the links, but my tools include a hacksaw and a power drill, so I don't really think I'm up to the task myself.

Any machine shop or fabrication shop should have a "abrasive cut-off saw." shouldn't take more than a few seconds per cut.
