Could someone post a photo of an original Fry top conduit cross/cover.
In the attached 1929 drawing of a 117 the cross has a removable top cover and gasket.

Thanks, Chris

Here is a 4 way tee in the conduit cup. It does not have the top, but you can see the three mounting holes to secure it. Dave

Dave, here is a photo of the original 2-way T on my Fry 17. The side where the wiring is located is at the back side of the T in the photo. The T has an angled passageway, 45 degrees, so there was not a sharp bend the wire had to travel to reach the top socket.

I have seen several variations of this tee. There were no light arms on the 17. This is correct. Dave

I wasn't sure from his original post if he wanted photo of 17 or 117 T.

I was looking for any photos of the original variations of the conduit cup/tee for the sheet metal globe cup.

Thanks for the photos.

As you can see the 17 and 117 are different. The 117 has two additional holes for the light arms. Either tee can be easily made with parts from Lowe's,Home Depot, or any plumbing supply house. Good luck and let me know if you need anything else. Dave
