Default M2 Steel source?

I'm looking for a source for M2 steel rounds and flats that folks have
used, i.e. a vendor that will sell 12" rather than 12 feet.


I've got some old M2 punch tooling that is too hard for me to work
with much at home. While I have uses for some of it, there's quite a
lot more there than I will *ever* use.

They're round, but have shallow grooves every couple of inches for
O-rings, as well as threads on one end and assorted punch profiles on
the others. I haven't measured the length, but I'd guess they 8-9"
long. Diameters range from .5" to 1.5".

Depending on how much you need, and whether or not you think these'd
work, I imagine I could send you a few of the punches if you pay the
shipping on them.

Contact me off-list at prometheus at charter.net if you're
interested.
