for sure the best plan.. but if for some reason your light schedule dosen't line up, chains with s hooks is the next best thing.i hired two 11 yrs old nigerians, that stand at each end and go as they grow.. its the best way!!! my lights r constanly 20inches from my canopy... i run my lights from 3am-3pm... if u run opposit, ill rent them to u...
Thats almost what i did. I use reinforced thin wire rope & pulley system.fishing reel, pully and duct tape??? perhaps a jeep whench??
