Source for Brass Wood Screws 1/8" head diameter

I'm looking for slotted flat wood screws with a 1/8" head diameter and 1/2" length.  Does anyone know the correct size screw with those dimensions and a source?  I know Micro-Mark carries some miniature hardware, but they don't provide head diameter information.

Here is an image of the style I need, although a sheet metal screw would work as long at it has the same flat, slottted head style and dimensions of 1/8"

Thanks guys.  Looks like my choices are #0 with a .119 diameter head, which is a tad small, or a #1, which has a .146 head, a bit large.  I've ordered some of each from Lee Valley, and will see which looks the best.

You could always take the larger ones, chuck them into a drill, and then file them while spinning. Unless you need a large quantity of them.

That was my back-up plan, but the screws I got from Lee Valley are fine.  Thanks.
