Hey all I had a bit of time on my hands last week and I had to hang up a new bulb so I thought I would show you how I do it, a lot of people use the bolt through the lamp socket, I don't do it this way, I use cable ties to hang 'em up, I've always done it this way and keep doing it as its not expensive, very simple, very quick, and lasts for a very very long time.
600w Bulb
Top of lamp
All you will need
First Step, wrap the cable tie on but don't tighten it, it should be loose
Step 2, insert the next 2 cable ties on your lamp exactly like I have.

Try and get it to look like this
Step 3, put the next cable tie on like I have.

Cut all the excess off
Closer view
How it should look
Last step, hanging chain has been cut with an angle grinder
Hooked up to your cable ties
The end result.

This way works perfectly for me and I would never use any other way, the cable ties are flexible so you can move them about to get your bulbs into a good position. Hope I taught somebody something here today.
