Looking for 1/4" metal rod I can thread. These will be attached to wood so rusting or staining can be a problem since they will be outside. Got a piece of stainless, the softess I could get but it is too hard to thread, have a good vise but with all the pressure It won't hold in the vise. Even bought a new die and tapered the end first. Had tried aluminum but it makes dark stains. Not into metal stuff so don't know what to look for. Maybe something coated? Thanks.
