Is the grate setup the same on your 118?Sunny Boy wrote: ↑Wed. Nov. 07, 2018 8:48 amThose grates look low mileage - like they still have their original sharp edges. That should move them up to, save 'em for recast patterns status.
If Wilson doesn't have any, I know someone who may be willing to loan you his #8 parts to use as recasting patterns ????

I ran the grates thru the shot blaster and they really cleaned up nice.
Your right Paul, they are perfect for casting patterns.

Paulie,
The 118 grate bars are similar sized teeth, but the gears are on the back ends of each bar. And the frame does not slide in and out of the base on side ledges like the #6 & 8.
There are cast ledges in each back corner of the base that the ends of the frame side rails have a pin that sits up onto them. Then the front ends of the frame sides have loops that fit upward over a tab sticking down in each front corner and a cotter pin goes through the tabs to hold the frame up. Not as easy to put the frame and grates in as the base heaters.
