Anybody used one of these to preheat rods?
My daughter is a hair stylist and I saw this thingy at her beauty school. A light bulb went on in my head. One of those aha moments. It is a heater (460 F) for metal combs and curling irons used to process African American hair. If you google "hot comb heater" you can find it. They cost about $30-$40. I did modify the little wire extension to accomodate glass rod lengths and it works like a charm and doesn't take up much space on my bench. I can also preheat murrini on the flat top. Just thought I would show you. Maybe someone has already figured this out but it was new to me.
