I used to get thin walled brass tubing, in sizes that sleeved each other, from 
"Small Parts" a company in FL with a neat catalogue that had all sorts of neat 
stuff that the hobbyist just had to have.

I don't have a catologue anymore, and they don't have a website, but their stuff 
is listed on someone elses website.

To get the list of round thin walled brass tubing, you have to register. :-(

I don't know if the tubing is as thin as you want. Can you turn the shaft down?
