Yes LOL like this.
You drill a 1/2 inch hole then insert the peg and wire.
You must notch the wire into the peg first.
Up top you mark then drill a hole so you can insert a
smaller peg to hold them up.

I see; the lamps are suspended directly from the matting. It's rigid enough to hold the lamps without bowing? The install and the room are great!

Love your lights, Skip!

I have to say, I'm absolutely floored. I never come into this section of tiki central, and now I'm kicking myself for not browsing here sooner! Absolutely incredible lamp making Skip! I read through the first and second pages, and it sucked me into reading the whole 16 page topic in one sitting! It must have broken my ADD, because I rarely read through everything in a topic post, unless I want to add a reply. Great job and thanks for sharing your talents!

KAHAKA Thanks I was thinking that too!
And it was great to see Monkeymans and your work up close.
Great lamps!
Lake I wish I could have met you at the Hop and checked out your stuff.
Thanks for posting the pic.
Tom Slick there is some great stuff in this forum.
Thanks for the props.
Few more pic's
Going to tiki up the cheese board one day.

Need to add one more thing.
I fire proof all lamps with the stuff below.
It is $50.00 bucks a gallon.
Beats finding a new home.
BUT you can't leave these lights on all night.
It's just not smart to do.
These things are made of very flamable material.
When I got a bunch of the Kahikis lights they were all chared inside.
Don't know how that place did not burn down.
Maybe it was this stuff.
