Default Where to buy small brass square tubing????

I got a trekker the other day and decided i am going to do a micro scale build. I ordered tires, got me a body, and some small brass round tubing. My only problem is, I can't seem to find small brass square tubing to build frame rails. If anyone could help me out in this situation it would be greatly appreciated..

I'd start with McMaster-Carr and then start Google-ing or check your local hobby shops.
You could probably find some on Amazon.com also.

Thanks. My lhs only supplies to people who want a 100mph traxxas. So if you don't do that then they pay no attention to you

My local hardware store sells it. Do you have a small, non-chain one around you? If so, check with them.

Beat me - I was gonna say, any place that caters to the serious model train enthusiast will have crap-tons of all sorts of brass stock...
