Treela Wooden Wedges for Chair Caning Supplies Wood Wedge Non Slip Wood Door Wedge Tool Triangle Block for Chair Caning Door Stop, 3.94 x 1.18 x 1.18 Inch(10 Pieces)

Okay, so Iive in an older mobile home. It has a "peak" down the center of the living room, kitchen and my bedroom. Unfortunately, in my bedroom, the peak is where the old fan/light was mounted and when I took it down, the dumb person who put it up used a straight/flat piece of wood just barely screwed into the ceiling at each corner...to hold up that heavy beast of a 1980s fan!!! I'm amazed it never just fell on the bed! Anyway, that old fan quit working and I had a really nice, new, smaller smart fan to replace it. Th problem is that peak...when I finally took the old fan down, that piece of wood fell and what I ended up doing was gerry-rigging the new, very lightweight fan with some 2" bungee hooks to hold it to the metal plate that I did screw in "tentatively" to the sloped peak. NOW, for these wooden wedges - they were inexpensive enough and I figured it couldn't hurt...two of these wedges with the wide edges together make the ceiling around the fan/light mount FLAT!!! Woo-hoo! I glued and screwed a pair on either side of the hole with the wiring, mounted the metal circle piece that the base for the fan attaches to and then the fan/light portion just has to do a half turn onto that base section and it's now finally mounted and firmly, FIRMLY on the ceiling! Again may I say WOO-HOO! Sometimes you gotta think outside the box and when I saw these, my mind said, yeah, those just might work...and they did! I have a cheap light fixture in the kitchen that isn't on the peak, but to one side so it is at an angle. I have been wanting to replace it, but wanted a fan/light like in my bedroom. Two of these wood wedges, again, on either side of the wiring hole made the mounting area flat - works for my new kitchen fan/light! Cheap, easy fixt for angled ceiling areas where you want a flat spot to mount a light, a fan, or whatever. I'm happy with how these worked for me!

They have a nice smell.

But, the wood it too soft, they don't last very long, the tips fold over.

A bit smaller than they appear, but still worked.

The wedges were very difficult to work with. The base of the wedge, when inserted into groove of chair, would weaken and not stay in the groove.Would not recommend these.

as expected size

These are very large. Not good for caning chairs.
