Hi all. Great information and greatly appreciated. I’m tuning up a Fisher Goldilocks for my shop in NE Oregon and the clean out door underneath has nothing to hold it closed. I have seen reference to wing nuts in the posts. I definitely see some small welding marks near both ends of the hinged clean out door. I suspect damage occurred as previous owner moved the stove around with a forklift. Could anyone please share a picture of what the original closure mechanism and hardware looks like? Thanks, Ashton Burnsmore.
