Looking for pinning stock

[Geordon]

I've been around the block a couple of times looking for round stock that I can use to pin restored razors, and I'm hoping that someone here has an idea of where I can find some 1/16" nickel silver to use. I was able to find brass easily enough as fine brazing rod in the welding aisle, of all things. Nickel silver is harder to find, and the only place that I've been able to find it in this size is Texas Knifemakers Supply for a lot more (relatively) than I'm paying for the brass.

While there are a few other things that I would be interested in picking up at the store I mentioned, their prices are higher than anywhere else online, so I'm hoping that someone has another vendor that they can suggest for me to look at.

Thank you! I hadn't even thought of looking for jewelry making supplies!
