Plastruct AR 2H Clear Rod 16 - Top-Quality Transparent Building Material Review

They're a little more fragile than I thought they would be, but they hold up these little micro machines well enough. They can be slowly shaped by bending. I made a few 90 degree bends. They are also VERY easy to heat and bend. They also transmit light fairly well (fiber optic wise).

The negative reviews speak for themselves that they didn't pay attention to the product description. They are thin as pasta, which I personally needed. They don't have to be as strong as steel either. I'm not sure what you were expecting. For small crafts and small projects, they are amazing. I make tiny crafts and can even trim them with scissors (although they will fly away from you, so aim carefully). Overall I will buy more. The best 1/16 I could find.

I was going to use these chopsticks to hold the top of an "Oh Baby" cake cut out of scrap paper, but the chopsticks were too thin and flimsy . My paper lid was very light, but the stems still buckled under the weight. I had to glue two sticks together and use two sets (4 sticks total) to prevent the sticks from bending under the weight. These chopsticks are as thick as a toothpick or a piece of vermicelli pasta. I need to find something twice as thick.
