The filaments are made of plastic and are about 20" long. I insert about 2" of one end into a vase with a 1/2 " mouth to form a fountain spray effect. If you have ever seen a blown pair of swans facing each other and the vase with the filaments flowing out of its mouth like a spring standing in the center of the pair swans then you have an idea what I am searching for. I need these filaments for my glassworks. I looking to buy at least 10lbs. of it per order for now if you or you know who may be saleing it.

Durastran is a dumb choice as it does not look anything like glass. You probably need to look for glass or plastic fiberoptic fibers even if you don't light them from one end.
