Maybe a chandlers- possibly along the line of a Sailing Boat mast.
Or possibly Military surplus?

I bought one from ebay, although this is different to my one. (It looks better)

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

I use similar to that to hold up my G5RV. Can't use the last few sections though, too floppy, but with a single wire taped to the side? Would do grand.
