small stove sized tool set?

[jeffman3]

We are looking for a small stove sized tool set that includes a coal rake, preferably hand forged black iron. Does anyone have a source they would like to share or recommend? I have found a few that would work ok but not just what we want. Allot of what I have seen look like they won't hold up to daily use and abuse.

I have this raised hearth (short for wood stoves) 18000 set from Pilgrim. Hefty cast iron. They also have other sets: http://www.pilgrimhearth.com/hearth/Tools-Raised.asp

A good online shop is www.northlineexpress.com

Thanks Sue! Thats pretty close to what we are looking for. Now it's just a matter of convincing my wife that we need to get this now. We talked about it and desided that we need to get a set, but she wanted to wait a bit to do it. See how it goes.... I know I'll let her clean out the stove with the shovel we have now. One time will do it I'm sure! :lol: the handle is probably 20" or more and then probably a 10" blade on the shovel. It is just plain to big for this little stove!

You might take a look at Lehman's store (www.lehmans.com). I got ours there and it is just right for our small stove. Very high quality and looks in proper proportion when next to the stove.

I found nice small tool sets at local Fireside Hearth and Home store.

For the Canadians out there, Home Hardware has a kit in their flyer this week for a short set with a two pronged poker that works great in my insert. I'll post the pic tonight - can't load the flyer from this PC. Cost was less than 30 bucks.

I bought one of those cute little "mini" sets for woodstoves. Poker, shovel, ash rake, and another nearly useless broom. I was going to use it with my shop stove. What I found is that, while the cleaning tools are nicely sized, the poker's a bust for me, because it's too short. Very often during burning, I want to poke around in there, especially prior to reload, or if a split has rolled down against the window. I'm too lazy to put on a glove every time I want to do this, and the little mini poker's so short that I just can't use it to good effect before the heat from the fire drives me right out of there. So I'm still using the good old tools I always have, which include a couple of short little antique ash shovels for when it's time to do that chore. I'd be happy to send you my mini tool set, as I've no use for it. Rick
