Being on the cheap I made this adjustable light hangers for my homeamde cfl light fixture.
Sorry for the bad pics. I think I down sized them to much to lower file size.
Heres. The jest of it.
Parts list.
2 cheap pulleys from harbor freight. 2 dollars
1 8 foot section 1/4 inch poly rope. 1 something Harbor Freight
4 screw type eye hooks 2 dollars HD
1 double clothes hanger 2 something HD
Mount one eye hook on upper middle inside cabinet. Attach the rope to it.
Attach 2 eye hooks to light fixture. Thread rope though.
secure eye hook opposite eye side and attach one pulley to it.
Mount other eye hook front of box so rope can go vertical.
Secure double clothes hanger half way down to secure rope w/ half hitch.
Heres the pics.
DIY Light Rope Light Hanger
Left side rope secured.
Rope though eye hooks on fixture.
The pulleys
Double clothes hanger with rope, half hitch knot.
Easy and cheap. You have to help the fixture up and down with one hand as you raise and lower it, But it works really good. If you don't know how to make a half hitch. Just type half hitch knot on google. You don't want your light falling.
