I am in the middle of a home improvement (?) project. It am going to
replace the existing dark walnut stained pine clowels with oak. I have
some closets with rods over 5' in length supported on each end and
with a single center support. I can't find oak longer than 4' in the 1
1/4" diameter. Does anyone know of a source for 5' or 6' oak dowels?


Try smart & final in the cleaning supply section,you will be
suprized. 1 1/4"
hardwood dowels with about 5'2" usable after cutting off the tapered
end
and the best part is the price less than $4 ea.
