I've found our nearest roundabout to be a good source for large size studding.
As builders trucks go round it, they regularly shed unsecured bits of their load, and I've got M16, M20 & M24 studding off the tarmac. In fact, over the years the supply has exceeded my demand so clearing the road to prevent punctures [honest, guv
] has led to a bit of clutter in the workshop.

Richard.
