Great, any chance of me getting a set. I have a baseburner coal stove, Favorite #251 that I'm in the process of redoing and moving it is quite the chore. Any info on how I can get a set would be greatly appreciated.

Harbor Freight sells them but unless you have a perfect floor or the stove isn't heavy, they just dont hold up with the cheap plastic wheels.

I had good luck on Ebay and bought a few sets of vintage well built casters there.

Just search stove dolly, or piano movers. Here is a current listing.

For your Favorite, I would definitely recommend going with the better ones.

We don't call him Cyclops without reason. Why are you called ancient flatus?
