http://www.onlinemetals.com/merchant.cfm?id=250&step=2 4130 circular tubing list. theres a sorting tool above the listings to sort buy OD or ID or Thickness.....its pretty self explanatory from there.

should be all the help you need

edit: and just in case you didnt know, .875"=7/8" and 1.125"=1 1/8"

have you ever worked with 4130 chromoly?
As far as I know it's very hard and so it wouldn't be easy for you to cut it, but if you know how please let my know, I want to make that too.

only true if you dont have the right tools.

if youre gonna make these bars in your shed with a hack saw and stick welder then dont even bother, only do it if you have access to the right tools (band saw, tube notcher, a good gas welder, etc.)

wat is a dang trolley pole

in austrailia they call it a trolley pole, here its known as a shopping cart handle bar/pole thing
