Hi Dave,
Yup, that's a Kimball all right. I've cut them from 1/2" dowels on the 
table saw and center punched and drilled them after installation, but it 
isn't all that entertaining for very long. To my knowledge, nothing that 
fits is commercially available unless maybe TF Supply suddenly finds a set 
in stock.
