I'm making a cool tube but am kinda stuck on how to mount the glass to my reflector (check pics) any help would be greatly appreciated.

I thought about using gorilla glue but am worried the surface temp of the reflector/glass may get to high. (Gorilla glue is OK up to 130* )

Check out the pics and lemme know what you think? :joint:

Drill some holes in the top of the reflector at each end of the tube. Some tie wire/cord around the tube and up through the reflector then tie it off.

how about cutting the reflectors sides down a bit & slip it into the glass ???
or wrap the reflector & glass w/ some fine copper wire.

I am pretty sure a duct reducer 6" to 4" would do the job.

Get a L bracket, take out the socket and hook the mogul base right onto the L bracket.
Hook a reducer on each end or if you have a 6" fan than voila!
