These may be to small, but they work for tiny items and are very nice!

Thanks Dinah. I figured they'd have to be imported to get a low price on a bunch of them. The work is probably about the same on a 30" as it is on a 6", just a little more iron used.

Hi Rick,

Don't know how heavy duty you are looking for but you might look at
Aftosa's website. They have an assortment of imported black iron stands
and things. www.aftosa.com. They are located in Richmond,CA.
