wanted: brass tubes long lengths

[mervyn]

Hi all can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can buy some brass tubing 10.5 or 11mm in long lengths so I can cut these down myself.
I will buy them from the US if I have too but if I could get them from the UK would be even better.

Many thanks

Mervyn

Imperial pen tubes

I have not found metric 10.5mm or 11mm but there are some very close imperial sizes that might work. Try this link.

Thanks guys for your help, just to put you all in the picture I was after a strange size tube brass or aluminum the size was 79mm long 14mm OD and 11mm internal hole, a customer of mine wants me to make him a fly reel seat for his custom fly rods that he builds, he wants me to cast feathers on the aluminum tube using the same method that I cast for my pens, anyway I have some samples tubes that an engineer has made for me from aluminum so I will give these a go!!
Thanks for all your help guys, when I have done these real seats I will post a picture.
