After some drilling and sawing to put a new ceiling box in... Taa Daa!
Tomorrow I just need to switch the electrical connection over in the attic and eventually plaster over the hole where the old fixture was. The old fixture was way off center of the staircase, my guess was they put it where it is because they could reach that area with a normal stepladder.

How big is the fixture? it looks huge......and fantastic in it's spot there......Your father looks very handsome and helpful...is he taken? LOL Is the fixture a vintage piece? Thanks for sharing...
Its really big, over 4' tall, plus the chain it hangs from is over a foot long. It isn't vintage unfortunately, I got it at Lowes. Yep, dad helped me wrestle that giant ladder into place then we measured up and marked off the center of the ceiling.

Vern and I check your site all the time. Great work on the house.
(getting a google password etc. has been a real pain though)
