I want to build my own glass shade. What dimension should the hole be in my shade to accommodate the shade holder?

Using the supplied socket & collar hardware, you would probably need a hole 1-5/8 inch diameter.

The glass shade I purchased measures 5 3/4 inches (width) by 9 1/4 inches (length).

I did not set posts. I built an arched frame over a trampoline and used it as a shade cover in that manner. I will tell you that the corners do hang out further than the center of the shade cloth and there is some stretch to the material in and of itself.Whatever the measurement is , I would allow an extra six inches in the pole settings and buy at least two adjustable straps to mount it with. You might want to check out Harbor Frieght. Also, a slight pitch will help you get leaves, etc off the top of the shade in a much more easy manner than a flat top. Good luck.

Drill a hole with a concrete drill bit. Place a plastic anchor in the hole. I used one sold for sheet rock use and tapped it into the hole. I made sure the size of the anchor fit with the screws that came with the shade. Works really well.

I don't believe so, these are meant for the round shade base, generally with three or four screws that hold the shade lip tightly. Just in case, I would send the seller an email.

The glass shade is about 9 1/2 inches in diameter and about 4 1/2 inches inheight. I have 9 foot ceilings and I mounted mine 20 inches from ceiling to the bottomof the shade. If you wound the cord up completely it would be about 11 inches from the ceiling to the bottom of the shade. Hope this helps.

I would stick with the one from Progress Lighting. The way the shade has to fit on is by a special little disk in the center top of the shade. The disk has a cutout on the side so that you just slip it into a groove on the pendant bar. It doesn't have any screw on parts like regular shades.

Yes, those are the approximate dimensions. The first dimension is closet to 230mm at the shade's widest. The dimension between the holes is close to 220mm.

The shade can be center mounted on a threaded post, or can rest on crossbars on an 8" or 10" bowl-type glass fixture

should work, I think. Depends also on how many holes you want to make. It's not that strong. Remember to ware protect glass.

Sorry, I am unable to measure the shade. I am at a different location than where the lamp is?

I can't speak for the 6' shade, but I can for the 10'. I had a 10' opening, and the 10x10' shade would not fit...at all. There were an additional 3-4 inches in mounting hardware (I imagine the same for the 6x6').

I think much more than 1-1/2" will be too big. The fixture has a large ceramic nut that clamps down on the shade, and if it's much bigger than that it just won't work.

8" top to bottom of shade, 4 7/8" top opening diameter, 11 3/4" bottom opening diameter

A standard hole is usually 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" (inches) that's what you will find in most vanities, I bought my vanity at Ikea and it fit perfectly; what will go through the hole are 2 small hoses so you won't have any problem running them through the hole.

It's round.. don't have it with me.. memory has the metal mounting base at about 4.5".. no way the shade is 4.5"; maybe at widest part around the middle.. it's more like 3" at the lip (bottom). I'll answer again and give measurements, but better to ask mfr.

There is a plastic screw on sleeve to hold a shade up off the bulb housing. As long as the opening in your glass shade is not larger then the screw on sleeve it should work fine. I did have three shades, two worked great but the third had a opening that was larger and slid right over the sleeve and bulb. So no lip is fine but to big of a hole does not work.
