To be a hanging lamp you need to install a socket with a ring and chain with the proper inbetween hardware like a threaded hollow 3/8 o. Brass pipe to position the ceramic socket where you want it inside. Attractive chain wire-about 13 feet loops from the open decorative eyehook in a beam to the top corner of a wall-on an open eyehook down to an outlet -plug it in and a switch inline near the outlet allows an on and off control. No wiring into an electrical box. Can move to a new beam anywhere in home in less than an hour.
Just find the middle of the beam. Need a drill that will turn a drill bit to make a whole that is as wide as the eyehook take away in your mind the threads leaving only the solid shaft.
That's the size you look for-you can hold the drill bit over the threads on the eyehook and only the threads should be sticking out from behind the drill laid on top of it.. When you turn the hook in there should be resistance but not stopping resistance. A small screw driver can do it easily using it as a lever bar to rotate the eyehook. When done pull on it hard with a piece of rope or chain attached. Done right it will hold any shade and more.Inner nailed plank perimeter pressed in tightly stops compression damage bubble -peanuts pressed in tight.
