Where to buy Threaded Nylon Rod

I'm looking for a local source for threaded nylon rods and nuts to use for live rock structures. I checked home depot with no luck, what sort of store would carry this stuff or some alternative I can get quickly tomorrow?

Thanks for the help. That is a website though and I was hoping to find some today to use. Where would I find the stuff locally?

try the rod from a driveway marker, not threaded, but works just fine otherwise, and cheap!

Or you could use acrylic rod. Find a local plastics shop and they will have it.
