Arrow Springs has the Osbin cone mandrel listed on their site.

http://www.arrowsprings.com/html/mandrels_tubes.html

It's about the 5th product down.

And Zooziis has the Inspiration Mandrels listed

Yep, Arrow Springs has a bunch of different sizes. Do you have a cool plan to use them? Make sure your bead release is really dry if you get the Arrow Springs ones. They heat a bit differently than regular mandrels.

Artistry in Glass in Canada also carries them. And they're supposed to have graphite ones coming soon.
