I have an extra set of triple pots and I would like to trade for double pots. My triples are made by Mirro and have lids and handles on the back. No holes and they are in fair condition (they could use some work on the finish)

They also easily fit into the thermowell.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

I understand your need for double pots... I too wish I had double pots. If you ever get yours keep your eyes open and spot some for me...v
Looks like double are the most in demand. I think a set went for more han $200 on Ebay recently.
Yes, those double pots are hard to come by. I need a set myself, but am not going to pay that kind of money. Now that the weather is better and my hubby's broken foot has healed, I'm going to hit all the flea markets, garage sales etc. Hopefully I will find them.

Glad to hear your hubby's feeling better. Mine stress fractured his calcaneous (heel bone) while hiking, and it seemed to take forever to heal. Poor guy even refractured it when he started hiking again after the initial injury. The doc had said it was OK to go back to the trail again after 6 weeks off in a walker boot. That was too optimistic. The second fracture took almost 6 months to be pain free at a normal walk. It was pretty bad.

Chipper,
Thanks, I'm glad he's back to work! Tough having someone around when you work from home. This was the second time for the same foot. This time it took longer to heal and was more painful which suprised me since he had surgery first time around. Now that the hubby is better, I'm off to the orthopedist with my son. I think it's a stress fracture from ballet. Back to the stoves, I think I'm going to add a chambers wall oven to the kitchen when I redo it, because I do a lot of holiday cooking.
I will be hunting for everything chambers this Spring and Summer. I will share my finds if I get doubles.

A wall oven is definitely a more efficient kitchen model than one with two full ranges, but I'm willing to suffer. [img]wink.gif[/img]
Speaking of duplicates, I just saw an article in a home magazine where the authors featured a home with two complete KITCHENS!!! One to actually use and a second one for entertaining that would stay clean (ie. be unused). It was in an 11,000 sq. foot house!!! What does one even DO with 11,000 sq. feet?!
I know I'm on the hairy edge of normal sometimes, living in such a little house or out of a backpack for months at a time, but some people are just scary in their consumption levels.

Jenn,
Gotta agree with you on the consumption levels. Of course, those 11,000 sq ft homeowners wouldn't last a day in my house.
As of today we have 3 Great Danes (one is a foster we picked up this afternoon), 1 cat, 10 fish, one 16 year old girl, and two adults. All of this in a 3 bdr, 2 bath, 1250 sq ft house! And, it works!

Don't look at all the chairs and such scattered around,. I am ATTEMPING to fill in the grass there and, all that stuff keep the herd off of it. I know, it's most likely in vain.
I'll happily live without the McCavern. 1250 sounds lovely.
That's a handsome crew of Danes you've got, by the way, FatFutures! Cute Harlequin.

studies have shown that people who live in 2000 sq ft and less use all their space. those who live in 4000 sq feet still use 2000 sq ft and the bigger you go, the less space people seem to use. it usually boils down to, just like most of us, we use the kitchen, the bedroom and another room a den or such for daily use, the big difference with space is people isolate themselves from others, kids staying in their bedroom suites and parents in theirs, maybe co-mingling for meals....pretty sad.
When Jeff and I lived in a 1700 sq. foot house, my indicator that it was way too big for us was that I could call and he wouldn't hear me.
You know your house is too big when... you need an intercom to locate your spouse.

some folks would consider that to be a bonus !
That would be a sad thing, indeed.
