Step 2Now what?
There is one hurdle, which is that, they sell this stuff by fractional inch dimensions 1/8", 1/4" ect... Piercings go by gauges. You just need to find what your gauge is when converted to inches. Then get the appropriate stock. There are several gauge to inch chart-tables out there on the Internet.
Length-wise they sell it by the foot, which ought to be way more than you'll ever need.
Next, we have a couple materials to choose from. Most of the plastics are bio-compatible, but if you're not sure, or if you have allergic reactions, for god sake, be careful & LOOK IT UP! Otherwise you will end up with a swollen, infected mess.
I bought the Poly-Carbonate, Acrylic and the PTFE
