22.0 Stem

I need a stem with a 22.0mm quill diameter. Is my only hope of finding one digging threw the old parts bins or are there any more reliable sources? I've heard I can just take a bit of sandpaper to a 22.2mm stem and take it down to 22.0mm with relative ease, but I'm a little nervous about that. Little help?

well I am sure there are lots of shops in your are. you never know what you might find by asking around. personally I would rather spend a few minutes with some semichrome making a parts box stem look nice, rather than removing metal from my steering system
