Default Controlling heating elements in a heat tunnel

I need to build a method of heating part of a plastic handle, kinda'
like this one:

I need to bend it 20 degrees at the neck. I have a few heating
elements from water heaters or I'll buy the best candidate, whatever
I can control. Or, I'd buy the hole kit-n-ca-bootle off the shelf.
Any suggestions?


Amazon sells temperature controllers at a hobbyist price (and
quality??).

I heven't tried them, my collection is pre-owned Omron and Omega.
