Pre-drilled rectangular steel tubing

Hello all,

I am in need of a bit of help here. I have a project that requires a bunch of 2" x 1" rectangular steel tubing with 3/8" holes punched every 1 inch. I attempted to do this on the drill press, but it is taking too much time to get anything remotely accurate. Does anyone know of a place that I can order it from?

Thanks..!

Depending on what the intended structural use is going to be, what about some pre-made shelving supports? Just what came to my mind first.
