I found some at the local Home Depot as part of a package of 2 cable clamps 
and the thimble ($4.90 +/- for 1/8th inch package here). Someone last week 
also put up the URL of place selling clamps singly ($6.90 +/- each for 1/8th 
inch)  that also has  thimbles (1/4 inch it says are $2.06 each). Marine 
supply places would probably also have them.
