Perhaps you could find them in an old (1920's era) Nicholas-Beazley catalog but they are not available today. Hard wire is still available, 13 ga. would be .090. Finding the "correct" wire can be a challenge. Some call it piano wire, others call it music wire. These are generally too stiff to use. Chris Bobka has done a lot of research on wire; he would be a good resource to ask. The common practice today is to use 1/8" cable and -22 turnbuckles.
