I never though I would as this question, but...

I have a ceiling fixture that is a two blub domed glass on a metal ceiling
mount. It was purchased at home depot. There is NO discernable means to
remove the glass from the metal part other than a seam. No screws, no
center shaft, nothing. The glass is firmly affixed to the metal. I also
tried rotating the metal base but it moves only a very little bit.

Believe it or not, I mounted this fixture myself. But I can't remember how
to remove the glass to change the bulbs (senior moment I suppose).

Has anyone any idea how I might accomplish this task short of visiting my
nearest home depot?

Thanks


This isn't one of those that has two pieces of spring wire inside
holding the glass globe to the base, is it?? I have a fixture that uses
that method of holding the globe and you need to pull down on the globe
in order to access the bulbs or remove the globe. The spring wires draw
the glass globe to the base when the globe is pushed up but allow the
globe to be lowered about four inches for access.
