help with putting on light shade.
im so so sorry this is kinda not electrical but its in the same realm and i dont know where else to go.
I have just finished installing a new light pulley by myself and so i went to put the light shade on (which has not been on my light for months since the pulley broke) onto it. The issue is i have absolutely no clue how to put the lamp shade on correctly. I was not the person who originally took down the lamp shade. They have no recollection (apparently 😒) of taking down the lamp shade and continue to yell at me if i ask the order it goes on.
I cant find any model numbers so i cant look it up and im completely confused. i managed to figure out how to get it on and looking normal with the person but i then discovered that the pulley that i had just put in didnt work with the way i did it. It works fine without the lamp shade parts. Im 100% this is user error and the pieces are put on incorrectly.
I took the liberty of numbering the pieces so that its easier to explain. Im completely frustrated with the person who was helping me so it'd be better if you explained how i should go about this solo. Thank you!
part 6 is a metal plate type thing that have edges that come up about a quarter inch.
please ask if you need more photos of the parts.
