I think you will find the best and cleanest and fastest shaker on a Glenwood Modern Oak or similar. The Glenwood is well thought out and even has a little sliding window so only one shaker spindle is exposed at a time to prevent dust escape. The ash pan is in a recessed compartment and if the pan is lifted out no dust escapes.JRLearned wrote:I think the Worcester craigslist add above was mine. I was looking to sell my Jotul 507 a couple years go. Never got a single inquiry. Now I'm looking to rehab the firebrick and get it going again. I'm so friggin tired of dealing with my Chubby Stove shaker grate.

Fantastic franco, where can I find one, and how can I get parts for it? I don't mean that in a sarcastic way.franco b wrote:I think you will find the best and cleanest and fastest shaker on a Glenwood Modern Oak or similar.

If it needs parts I would not buy it. They do come up on craigslist from time to time. In newer stoves I would favor the Hitzer 50-93 which has rocking grates as well as hopper and thermostat to control air. They also are sometimes available used.JRLearned wrote:Fantastic franco, where can I find one, and how can I get parts for it? I don't mean that in a sarcastic way.
