Default HB install-help needed

I am not trying to resort to whacking on the balancer but cannot find a suitable install tool from the local shops. i would like to make one like i've seen here on the forum in some posts but cannot find any all thread the correct size. I assume they are made from a piece of M16x2.0 120 mm or longer. Does anyone know where to buy the all thread? No luck at home depot or lowes-they do not carry any metric.

thx
