ChrisG-Canada 163 Report post Posted October 15, 2017 I’ll post this question in the Marketplace, but I’m not selling anything... My wife want me to make several (many) different types of tea light candle holders from wood - in a bunch different styles, etc. In order to make life a lot easier and to best suit some of the design styles, I’m hoping to find an affordable source for metal tealight cup holders/grommets. These are not the metal cups the wax is poured into to make the actual tealights but rather a slightly larger cup/dish that a finished tealight can be placed into and easily removed/replaced as necessary. The pic is what I’m looking for... The only online source I’ve found is the UK version of Amazon (where I sourced this pic) - but that seller doesn’t ship to Canada. i see these things used in all types of pre-manufactured tealight fixtures so there must be a source for them. Maybe I just can find the proper Google search term to find them... Any suggestions, sources or other useful ideas are most welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These are the casting size...no bigger... and come with many deformed/crushed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keggers 432 Report post Posted October 15, 2017 Okay. I'll try to help again. You might want to look at Lee Valley - http://www.leevalley.com/us/wood/page.aspx?p=44948&cat=1,43326,44948. Might not be exactly what you're looking for but there are various sizes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
