Imagine yourself coming through a hatch door on a roof top and seeing a lineup of Chambers "candlesticks" and "companions" --                                                                                              
                                                                                                             

I made a great find today and thought that you readers should know about it. I found a house with a nearly complete, working CHAMBERS system on it! 

There are three intact CD 132.4's (companion), as well as five CD 317's (candlestick). All appear to be aqua, some a darker green. I snapped off 24 pictures of them.

I was able to access the roof of the home through a hatch in the attic's ceiling. I am in negotiations with the owner to snag one of each. I have a nice CD 132 that I can change out for the CD 132.4, and I have proposed changing the CD 317 out for a CD 257 Mickey Mouse. These are both unseen from the ground. I have also offered my painting services for their home! This is truly history!

Tripod lightning rods with wooden threaded cobs on end allows the CD 132.4 to be screwed onto the tripod. The cable is then placed into the vertical groove on the back of the insulator, and secured by two pieces of wire that wrap the wire groove and just above the flanged base.

The candlesticks (CD 317) are mounted with a substantial threaded pin on the apex of the roof top. The horizontal cable rests in the top wire groove. Two short pieces of wire wrap around the "bulb" top, are twisted into a single wire, and fastened to the cable.

One cool thing about the system is that one of the CD 317 must 
have broken sometime ago and it was replaced with a jar!
