Brian's wood handles, quick question.
« on: March 21, 2015, 07:04:16 AM »
I feel like I read that they don't fit the new kettles, this could be me, reading things wrong in the middle of the night, but I just picked up an AU (2012) edition kettle and I hope they fit, so please tell me they do.

Order the normal 1 screw model and you're golden. Old kettles that had wood handles held on by 2 rivets obviously wouldn't be what you want.

OTOH if you do have 2-rivet handles, Brian still has Zavandles for you but remind him that you need 2-rivet handles 8)

For an AU code, you might want to do a mod on the bowl straps for a single-screw handle.
Otherwise, there is the potential for the outer part to "helicopter" and ultimately damage the wood over time.  Your call.

I did THIS to help prevent that.
