Wire with a memory! Nitinol wire was discovered in 1961 and has “shape” memory. When placed in cold water it can be bent into any shape. Put into hot water, it springs back to its original shape. Shape memory alloys are discussed in the provided instructions. Price is per inch; may be purchased in any length requested.
