Shoot, just did one the other day where the HO left a note: "Please leave enough slack so I can put the chandelier over my dining room table." Kinda difficult for me to gauge since there wasn't any furniture in the house and this was a big darn room. [Linked Image]
Already low ceilings (7') left that fixture so low it's the first chandelier I've ever seen that someone could trip over. [Linked Image]
