Default 5-40 Small Pattern Hex Nuts

Okay all you Cox people. Here's a test. Have any of you seen in your screw hunts for 5-40 screws anyone who carries SMALL PATTERN 5-40 HEX NUTS?

Standard ones take a 1/4" wrench and the small pattern takes a 3/16" wrench. I need the small ones.

I've looked in all the standard corners for them. Only thing I can find is military or aircraft suppliers in high quantities. I only need a dozen or so for my Cox powered 1/8" boat prop shafts. Regular pattern 5-40 nuts stand out behind the prop like a door knob.

If anyone replies that knows where I can pick a few up, I'll be shocked...
