[TheForge] half round staock

[CGRAF]

Todd 1/2 full round is not the problem. I need 1/2 half round.
The closest that I have gotten thus far is 9/16ths banding stock.

I need this to make some dies for my leaf break to match some existing 
work on a conservatory that is being rebuilt

  Thanks for your effort.

  A friend on another list informs me that 3/4 has been the small end 
manufactured for several years.
