I have a friend who works in construction, I'll see if he has a spare piece of rebar available.

I'm willing to bet rebar would bend. A piece of steel black pipe a couple feet long would probably do it. No idea what the cost of that is tho. A piece of angle iron would do it too.

I'm no expert, but why would rebar bend? Isnt that the stuff that they put in concrete when they make buildings?

It's a pretty soft steel. I think it's used more for tensile strength than for bending strength. It might work, it just looks like 1/4 inch tubing you're trying to bend back into shape.
