This looks like a pretty cool circuit:

However, where would I purchase a set of ferrite rods? I checked
Jameco and Radio Shack, but no dice.

Would any ferrous metal rod work similarly? I.e. a simple steel nail
or bolt?


I have made many ferrite rods by assembling long form ferrite beads into a stack. At 35 kHz, the Steward LFB material would work just fine, and Digikey sells many sizes for little money. Buy beads of the appropriate diameter and epoxy them together.
