  1. Hey all,

    I just located a " Suitable " replacement wood Handle , for the " Wafer Iron".

    Home Depot; Brinkman Grill Brush; $ 1.97.

    I just needed to shorten it a bit, and with a wood file, trim down the diameter , for a snug fit.

    I roughed one up just to see if it would work.. It took about an hour, but it worked out ! !

    All that is need is a small wood screw to hold it in place.

    Nice find on the handles. They look very good. Now you can try making some of those wafers.. Maybe Jean has a recipe.

    After work I will find the krumkaka recipe. Also, you could try a crepe recipe.

    I slightly charred the wood & set a small Tack/Nail to hold the handles in place !

    It also fits on top of my " #8 Waffle Iron Base ".

    Really looks good. Functional as well. After a few uses, I don't think any one would notice that they aren't original.
