I'm pretty sure Home Depot has round stock in those sizes, not sure about the aluminum though.

Fuck all that shit, Research Alloys is the place you are looking for. It's a scrap yard/metal shop; they have all kinds of random drops and full pieces somewhat organized by shape and alloy. You can just walk through the place and see what they have; they will also cut or shear off pieces for a small fee. They just throw the stuff on a scale and the prices are VERY reasonable. I love going there, it's like a candy store for fabricators...
