    Hi I bought out a ware house full of wood stove supplies. These are mostly from the 80s. I have a dozen 8" x 24" single wall snap lock pipe,4 - 8" adjustable 90 degree elbows,catalytic combusters,monster mauls,lift and saws,log rollers,auto draft controls,thermometers,most of these products are from the now defunct Sotz corp. 3Fa3J73H25L55Na5Edcab9f6a9af937781815.jpg

    Holy.Crap. I remember seeing a few of the last models with the foam grip on the lower handle.Tried one that someone else owned,didnt like it personally.They tend to crumble & wear off quickly & would feel squishy when wet. Much prefer the plain steel handle,always wore heavy gloves with them anyway,even in mid August.

    We had one around when I was a kid. I hadn't seen it for years, then I spotted it my uncle's camp in da U.P. He said I could have it back, but I passed. IIRC, the handle was knurled on the end. Never saw one with a rubber grip.

    I bought one of those big red ones at TSC, but it never worked nearly as good as the monster maul.

    My buddy bought one for me in Cleveland, I think that is where they made theim. Mine is just steel. Haven't used it in a while since I bought some hydraulics.

    Eastpointe is the other side of Detroit, prolly 1-1.5 hours from here. Don't get that way very often.

    Sorry, wasn't clear with that post. I meant when / if you're planning on selling them. I'm over by Gun Lake on the west side of the state. A C

    Edit: I was not suggesting you deliver or anything of that nature. Just curious what you planned to do with them.

    If that guy had a newspaper-log roller in there, I would be buying the whole pile.
