How did you all attached a lamp shade to this?

The lampshade I bought had a metal circular ring design which allows the lightbulb to keep the shade in place once the lightbulb is screwed in place.

To attach lamp on top, you must a round base lamp. This can secured with tension screws included in the lamp kit. You should be able to slide the Portsmouth post over the existing metal lamp post. Snug the new post to one side of the post and attach with screws. Hope this helps....we were well pleased with the end results. Feel free to contact me again Scott

No. A bridge lamp shade has a screw in component which attaches above the bulb and supports the shade.

My lamp is older, and I had to screw it in. It looks great. Here's a pic: http://i.imgur.com/Ia5wmYX.jpg

It is designed to fit on the lamp with a "spider fitter"(a small hole with 3 arms reaching out to the lamp shade), which fits onto a lamp "harp"(a metal piece that attaches around the light bulb area and fastens down near the light switch), and then the shade is fastened down with a "finial" onto the top of the "harp"(a "finial" is a decorative cap that holds the entire lamp shade tight onto the "harps" top screw). I would attach a picture, but there isn't anyplace to attach one here, sorry. I hope this has helped you some.

Can you install one of these under a normal tabletop lamp with a shade? Or is it too hot to have a shade on it?

it's a little black knob under the shade, up near the bulb. It may have come out during shipping. Check the box for a black knob in that case, and just reattach it.

Try using a light clap with metal hood available at Home Depot. Or make your own using a socket, electrical cord and plug - wrap cord around top of stand and secure with a either large binder clips or claps again available at Home Depot. Not sure how you provide shade to the last option. Good luck.

The lamp shades are held on by a 1 1/2 - 2 inch plastic screw in holder, you screw these holders on inside the shades. there is one for each shade the main shade and the reading lamp shade. There are also 2 clips that hold the wire against the lamp pole to keep it from catching on things, they are about 3/4 inch in diameter, these just snap on over the wire. I hope this helps.

I used 2-1/2" galvanized steel pipes with SS eyebolts for one side and attached to an upper story deck post on the other. Hand pulled the tie ropes. Instead of the ropes that came with the shade, we used longer nylon ropes, so it's easier to tie.

Looks like a round screw on fitting that holds shade in place and then you put bulb into socket. If you need I might take a photo of inside of shade with bulb already in place.

The light bulb is exposed (nothing covers the bulb) but does not hang below the bottom of the shade, I used a large bulb like the one pictured with good results with respect to both function and appearance. A standard bulb would work as well.

I put a different shade on it, and it works great. If you do get a shade, pick one with a small circular opening and the wire frame closer to the top of the shade rather than the middle.

It's the spider-type. It has three spokes and a center hole that fits over the screw on the top of the lamp. You then screw the finial that comes with the lamp back on and the shade is secure.

As slinky describes, my shade like this has a three bar ring at top small circle with a threaded area to which you can easily attach a regular lamp harp. I use a CFL bulb with it with no trouble.

The provided lamp shade is a harp. It does not attach to bulb. However, most 3-way light bulbs are too large and will not fit in the harp. See my review for a work around solution if you encounter this problem.

The shade is plastic and metal. The metal is probably lead alloy that's been poured over the plastic. The plastic will easily fool you to think it is a glass. the base of the lamp is heavy iron which makes it very stable. It works with two 100 Watt incandecent or CFL bulbs. Very well packaged.
