You might try simple acrylic rod. Cut the rod, use fine sandpaper to get the ends relatively smooth, then dip the ends in the solvent used to join acrylic. I believe it is methylene chloride (but could be wrong). Anyway, let ends dry and you will have a shiny clear flat end. The acrylic rod can be heated and bent if desired. Finish the ends AFTER bending, as the bending can slightly deform the rod ends. Fr.
