so it didn't come with a manual...[p]why is the hook on the ash tool handle bent 90 degrees?
it won't hang up that way, so there must be some clever reason for it. maybe to lift the ash grate with?[p]ashhook.jpg[p]HolySmokes

    HolySmokes,
    For poops-n-giggles, see if it will stand up on that end. :>|

    HolySmokes, Someone posted that it works with the old hinge. Not the new spring hinge, but the old locking one. Something to do with that. I don't have an old hinge or the ash tool, so take this info for what it's worth ;)

  • HolySmokes,[p]I srewed a wood screw straight down, leaving approx. 1/2" sticking up and approx. 1" from the edge of my cypress table that my egg sits in. The ash tool hangs just fine.

    HolySmokes, I thought it was for picking up the grid. I have not used it for that as I have the tool designed for that, Jim.

    HolySmokes,
    I always thought it was a conversation piece for when things got slow on The Forum. Since things seldom get slow, the question doesn't come up very often. I have one of the old type sissor-lock Eggs and I can't figure out how the hook end would do anything that the working end couldn't do. I just hang mine on a large cup-hook at the end of my BBQ Center.[p]Spring Chicken

    HolySmokes,
    Maybe its for lifting the handle to keep from burning the hair off your arm.
