Need source for 8-32 thread ramrod accessories

I can find all kinds of 10-32 stuff, but no 8-32 thread.
My son's ramrod is 8-32 and the cleaning/starter jag with it doesn't work well pulling patches unless they are really wet. Good luck with a dry patch. You lose it in the barrel more often than not.
I suppose I could buy a 8-32 to 10-32 adapter but really want a .50 cal jag, 8-32 thread that works and he can keep on the rod and store it that way with the rifle like it is supposed to be.
Any suggestions?
thanks.

None of the accessories for ramrods are all that pricey, but sometimes the shipping is outrageous. No harm in saving a buck or two, and both Track and Dixie are set up for on-line ordering.
You will have a stronger thread and easy to find accessories.
Someone with a lathe will be able to do a neat job of it.
