Default Making rods out of bottle glass

Hey, I wanted to experiment with melting bottle glass. I'm going to start by pulling stringer/rod out of broken pieces of a wine bottle. If I can manage to get "thicker" rods (thicker than 2-3mm) is it necessary to anneal the rods? Will the rods survive air cooling then being put back into the flame a few hours/days later without annealing?

Thanks in advance!
