I like the rishas from Viken Najarian at http://www.oud.net. He has a Turkish type, and a pointy flexible plastic type. The later is what I prefer, I find them easy to shape the tips
with sand paper and a file. These are probably the most widely used type of plastic rishas.

hello,
A cheaper solution might be as simple as going to your local home improvement store. Cable ties are sold there, escpecially the 3/4 or an inch
variety. If anything you can then take sand paper if not a file and file away untill you get the size that you wish. They sell them in packs and the
cost should be quite resonable.
good luck
