Where to buy square bimini tubing?

Anybody have any idea where I can by lengths of straight square tubing (preferably in black) for my bimini top? I need to reconfigure my top so it will be lower (when folded) so I can fit under a couple of the low bridges on our lake. Rather than modifying the existing supports, I'd rather just make another alternate set, but I can't find a place to buy the tubing.

Thanks for the help!

Mcmaster carr here is a link, only 6 ft lengths though https://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-alum ... g/=1cjzmct

You can get longer but you have to cut it for ups, 8ft lengths but issue is ups length kills you

stop by a local awning builder or small machine shop, I am purchasing at a machine shop, so I buy tubing in 20/25 ft pcs

as for black spray paint it, anodizing is $$

Onlinemetals.com. This is where I got c-channel for cross members. They have warehouses all over. I drove 100 miles to pick it up, so shipping was free. Check to see if they have a warehouse near you.
Or you might call at billsboatstuff.com.
