So weird.....

I suddenly can't find 4130 steel rod in 1/4" diameter anywhere in the US. Except a few short overpriced bits on eBay. I need 100' of the stuff for the tie rods in my biplane.
Don't waste your time googling....I did that for you. None of the obvious places, none of the specialists have it and can't get it.

1/8"yes, 3/16 and 5/16" , sure - but no 1/4....
