Hello, good people.only my second time posting on the forums, but I check up on the bit coal forum several times a year. That's where I'm posting my problem; I hope it's the right place. My grate gave out on my old stove last night, and I haven't got a clue where to look for a replacement. The company that made the stove has long gone out of business. My stove is an early 1980s Nordic, Erik coal&wood burner. Any ideas, thanks.

Yeah, I figured that would be my only hope. Here in eastern Kentucky, since most of the mines have shut down, they aren't many shops around these days. It might take me a little longer to get one made than I had hoped. I guess I'll burn wood in the ole girl until I can get one made. Thanks.
