Since the rebuild is working so well I got my stove a new set of grates ( 170- to the door from woodsman ) trying to run my coals out enough to clean out and swap in a few hours, originals are 30 years old and have about 3/4” drop in center and missing 2 teeth

Got em in ( had to bust some fingers off the old ones to get them out ) new ones were catching the exterior frame due to warpage , had to take an 1/8”-1/4” off the center fingers to clear exterior frame . This has never operated as smoothly as it does today
