Thank you to everyone who responded. I did make an order with Mouser for some as I needed to order many other items as well for other projects. After placing the order I tried what many of you suggested, cut up a Bic Ball Point pen to use as a form, calculated the wire size and length, wound the wire on the form, dabbed a bit of epoxy on it to hold it in line and "BINGO", a home made .1 ohm shunt for less than 25 cents.
The good news is that it works!
Cheers all
