Where to get transparent plastic rod?

KsGoh, I tried to use the kitchen stove fire... it melted it :(
I don't have an oven, and even if I had, I dunno how hot should I set the temperature of the oven.
So I end up using hair dryer to slowly mould it into shape.. took me more than an hour..damn tired now... :blink: In the process of moulding it, I broke the rod a few times already. But finally made it...but it's not perfectly round though...sigh :unsure:
I heard somebody said can buy it for less than RM100 from some car accessories shop... maybe might just take the shortcut and buy the ready made one.
The result of using the gas stove to mould it. Completely ruin it. It cause bubbles to appear inside the rod.
Finally after over an hour of using the hair dryer and a round mug to mould it..but still not perfect.

hey i got an idea... when u got to de shape liao... use rough sand paper to make de rod rough... then LED when light shine it... will be very nice..... and even light..
AlanTan, like I said above, I didn't dare use an oven because:
1) I don't know what temperature to use
2) My toaster oven too small
The rod cost me RM23 or RM27 I think...got it from an art shop called Wins situated by the side of Lim Kok Wing campus in Taman Megah.
The rod is about 6 feet long.

InitialD,
to use oven... i suggest u start with a low temp 1st... c whether de rod start to get soft... if not.. adjust it higher.... until u get de right temp. (make sure u preheat de oven 1st :P )
another way is to use hot air gun.. its like a hair blower.. but with higher temp hot air....

hot air gun NOT only for tinting :)
many many uses
especially for plastics.
it's also possible to weld/braze (!!!!!) copper pipes with the correct attachment.
