*****UPDATE August 2017 - I ran into issues with the closed sides on my original version, so I made one with open sides to accommodate larger prints. I also (per request) made an angled tealight version.
I would not recommend using an actual tealight, but it will fit the typical Ikea brand candle tealights, including the holder, and will of course fit the preferred LED tealights. The LED versions really work well, actually! The frame gap situates the lithophane in a relatively vertical position, and new versions provide an angled option instead of completely vertical. Sides were left open to accommodate slightly larger prints - the original was intended to house a 5.5 x 5.5" lithophane.
I am using a MakerSelect v2 using no support, no raft, 0.8 mm wall thickness, 0.1 mm layer height, print speed of 35-50 mm/s using Inland PLA from Micro Center.
Constructive commentary gladly accepted - enjoy!
