1cm mesh is fine, but I used 6mm to be extra cautious. Any DIY store will stock it. I got a panel from Wickes (garden section), but you can get it from Homebase, Wilkinsons etc. Erin dismantled a bird feeder and used the mesh from that.

We got the 1/4 inch mesh and we hard a hard time finding it as well. Until we called it hardware cloth, then every store knew what we were talking about. HOpe you found some

is it just for the top of a rotastack carrier, i.e about an envelope sized piece you need?

I ask because i may have an off cut in the shed (can't promise) but if it is just a small bit you need i'll happily have a look to see if i can find it for you?
