Forget rods, you will not get adequate conduction.
Small stainless steel tube = medical needle.
The steel is perfect for generating heat with a controlled current, enamelled (not lacquered-that's no good) copper wire through the middle and brazed at the bottom gives you a circuit with the greatest heat generation from the steel.
The fan is to keep the connections, mounting block etc. at the top cool.
Any good? :-)
