I couldn't find a "lost and found" section on this site, but was wondering if anyone knows where I can find a shaker handle to fit the drawcenter on my stove? Tired of shaking it with a bent threaded rod for the past so many yrs. I think this topic has been brought up yrs ago, but everything seems to be buried right now. Thanks.

You're probably right, Tom. Next time I'm out that way, I should stop by. Thanks for the reminder.

Also check eBay under "stove shaker handles". I've found quite a few GW stove handles for the parlor and range stoves.

Oddly, I've found more of the unique GW triangular grates range handles on eBay than only one of the stove shops had for sale way back when I first got the range. :baby:

Hi Paul, I was all over Ebay yesterday, and all I found were the handles for (like you said), the prismatics. (with the single square hole). You remember what my drawcenter looks like, and takes a "double-ended" prong to insert from above. From what I remember, they didn't look very long, but guess that was all the leverage needed.

Joe. Keep looking, they turn up.

BTW, the GW "prismatics" have a 3/4 inch triangular socket. The square sockets are for the two-sided grates such as Dock Ash or duplex. ;)
