> 3 dayThese rods are actually 3/8 inch in diameter. I had also ordered some 1/8 rods which I had already reviewed and it guess Amazon got confused. These brass rods are a perfect 3/8 inch. They appear to be laser cut. They seem pretty bright and putting them in my lathe or drill and polishing with1000 grit they will shine bright. Got this to make a small tool for my engraving and these brass rods are always good stock to have on hand for whatever project may turn up.

> 3 dayI dont really have much to talk about with these brass rods. They came in a timely fashion, the count is accurate, and the dimensions are within reasonable tolerance. I did have one or two that appear to be slightly undersized, but thats only by about an 10th of a millimeter. As for the finish, the surfaces dont have any knicks or scratches to report, there is some slight tool mark ghosting from the lathing process, but thats barely noticeable. All in all these brass rods areally are all theyre cracked up to be. They work fine, and the price is reasonable.

Greater than one weekI use brass rods quite a bit as a model maker. The Coolneon 1 mm brass rods are superior in every way to other brands that Ive used. The best part may be the storage case. Its plastic, protects the rods and is easy to access.

> 3 dayTwo brass rods, straight as arrows and within tolerance the entire length. Came in a great slip case to keep them from getting nicked or roughed up in transit. This is nice because these are going to be used for decorative purposes to the cleaner they look to start, the easier the polish will be later.

Greater than one weekI ordered this brass rod for making small parts with my miniature metal lathe. The rod arrived in a hard plastic protective case, and wasnt covered in tape or marker like some other metals Ive sourced elsewhere. There were no defects, including scratches or dings in the surface. The ends were finished nicely, which was a surprise, since most small pieces of metal rod Ive purchased have rough cut ends from being sawed to length. If youre looking for a quality piece of brass, this is a good source.Ill be back when I need different sizes, or more of this one. Im very happy with the quality and really secure packaging.

Greater than one weekThis 1/2 brass rod arrived in a sturdy plastic sheath. It was very straight, had a highly polished finish and was accurate throughout its length. It measured from .4992 to .4995 at multiple positions. I would classify this stock as very high quality and recommend it for purchase at its current price. Note, the title in this review indicates 3/8 but the tested produce was actually 1/2 diameter rod.
