Does anyone know where I can find brass "C" channel strips, 1/4" wide or even a little less and 6" or more long?
Thanks for the help.

K&S has sold brass c channel stuff. My LHS sells K&S stuff.

VCS carries a small selection:

Special Shapes carries a wider variety:

Have not personally seen any from K & S, but plenty of the brass and aluminum tubing (round and square), brass bars, sheet stock and rods.

Good hardware stores near me carry assorted brass, aluminum and
stainless shapes. They run 12 ' to 18". Also, any good hobby shop
will carry such merchandise or you can buy it on line.

Thank you all.

The problem with my trying to patronize my LHS which I would luv to do, is that he has very little HO or train stuff period.  For him is it almost all RC stuff.

If I strike out at the hardware store (one of my favorite places) and the hobby shop, then I will look to those on line sights.  I saw that VCS place yesterday TimR when I was hunting around.  I wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions of where to look before I began my quest.  Thank you all again.  Have a great day!
