How about going to the hardware store and getting some all-thread.
You can cut it to whatever length you need, and put a couple of nuts in the center.
Just tighten them to each other so they won't turn.

Make sure you have the nuts on the all-thread before you cut it. That way, you can spin the nut off the end to clean up the threads.


Some people hunt with a gun. I use a Canon.

FlashZebra's price is $4.00 plus shipping. Probably the cheapest you'll find.
