Don't have one but some members do and it has been discussed before.  Here is a link to a supplier.  Page 10.

Nice copper, folks here won't build with copper anymore because it's so common for pill heads to vandalize construction.  They wait til the wiring and plumbing is being done and rob it.  Same thing happens if you leave a home vacant.

TPM-------------Check out "Alternative Heating & Supplies" at(1-888-881-1602) and <AltHeatSupply.com>.
                       Page 13 of their 32 page catalog lists brass 1" and 3/4" "Y" STRAINER Part #YS34 and YS01.
                          These people are in Connecticut. As a suggestion, I like teflon tape put on threads versus pipe dope. Another tip that works well is buy local when the end of the job is in site You can take back the unused products and get your money back with no freight involved.
