  1. @Jenny – Took me a second to figure this one out too and it’s not fully explained.

    It looks like they have 6 holes drilled into the Lack table. 4 for the cords to run through and 2 holes for large screws to hold it all up on the ceiling. The Lack legs were cut at about 2 inches and used as separators from the ceiling that also serve to hide the two screws that go up into the ceiling. Grab a stud finder, You would have to have really long screws (4.5 – 5 inches). A Lack table is 1.5″ thick then you have to pass through the 2″spacers, and 5/8″ drywall before you get to a stud. Or use toggle bolts that will open up after you get it through the drywall.
