This is a design that came about when we were helping my mother put away her Christmas decorations for the year. she complained that the candles sat way to low in the windows and got lost in the decorations. Like most members of Thingiverse I immediately thought to myself, my 3D printer can solve that problem, and here are the fruits of the 10 minutes of design and 4 hours of printing that followed. It is almost exactly what she wanted so now all I have to do is print the remaining 8 as I have only finished 4 so far. Used Amolen Bronze filled filament which gives a pretty rich color, that and the fact that I had some lying around made it ideal.
This fits a dirt cheap battery powered candle (seen in the pictures) with a .700" base, I added a 1 degree draft to help secure it. If you have other size candles I included the SolidWorks file for customization
