Hmm.. I thought that's what I suggested :-)

Essentially what we are saying us make your own studs by running a board between two studs in the ceiling. I guess that's called a stringer? Then mount the light from that. There must be studs up there somewhere? What is the ceiling drywall screwed into?

I didn't know you meant on the visible side of the celing. That sounds like a good idea, think I'll do it that way. Thanks for the suggestions.
