Where to find 1 1/8" dymondwood dowels?

HI Guys,
I hope someone out there can help me with this one. I have enjoyed
working with the Customwood from Clements turning seet inserts and trim rings but their selection of colors is a little on the limited side. I have contacted Rutland plywood Corp. who makes Dymondwood(VERY LARGE selection of colors) but they have a minimum size order. Thats's enough to empty my retirement account. All I need is a few dowels of assorted colors to match the thread windings. Is there any supplier of Dymondwood in smaller qntys. Alot of the pen suppliers only offer it in the 5/8 size, the larger size would fit my needs.
So I throw this one out to the group for some help. Thanx to all of you for whatever help. Pat

There has been some for sale on @#$%& in the last few weeks. Check under woodworking and use the search feature. I would expect that Rockler supply or Woodworkers supply has it in turning squares.

HUT Products has a web site and prints a catalog. It's mostly pen stuff, but they carry some Diamond wood for lathe turning in a size rodbuilders can use.
