my shaker grate is not really smooth all the time. what size washer would I get to slightly raise grate so it smoother? also what metal steel, stainless, zinc? any help from my fellow chubby fans. looking forward to my 2nd season of coal burning. also have fisher wood stove grandpa style for sale.

Chubby Warped Grate

The advice I got from Larry was to place a 1 1/2" washer with a 1 1/8" hole on the center pin under the grate to raise the grate off the support tabs.

its amazing how we as a group of coal burners have so much respect for each other. we don't know each other but we are willing to help our fellow chubby users with useful advice, hints and tips on operating our stoves. so glad to see that in todays world. also I have called larry trainer several times for advice and he is truly a class act. his style of business and customer service is slowly disappearing in todays world. he truly is a gentleman.
