I wired two pendant lights which hang about 24" from track above a breakfast bar. The wires seem to be hanging themselves out so they are straight...I don't think I'll have a problem there.
The difficulty I'm having is that the pendants themselves hang a little bit askew. Not much, but enough to be noticible. The pendants are about 8" in diameter heavy glass.
In looking at where the wire enters the top of the pendant, the wire is smaller than the metal fitting that it enters. The metal fitting is threaded. I would think if there is some sort of spacer that would cause the entrance to be the same diameter as the wire it fix the problem. Is there that type of fitting available? Is there some way to tape it and close the gap without it looking bad?
Any help or insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
