I made this lighting pelmet to stop the glare from my lights , and and now concerned if I should hang it or not. I have a d-d otm rail which currently has 3 hydra 64s and 2 ai blade 57 inch lights hanging from it. I was planning on hanging the pelmet from a wire through the gap marked in the picture but it weighs about maybe 7 or 8kg is this wise to do ? Glass is 19mm thick.
