    Its just stainless steel wire. I used to restring them but I cant remember what gauge it was. Get your caliper out and check it. Think I found it at Grainger. Its been probably ten years.

    Whirlpool Cuber

    I am also looking for some old cutting Grids or Grid Parts for a Whirlpool Cuber machine. The bigger grids are preferable - I believe model number is CH5.

    I've got some wires and some of the pins with the little dog legs in them. Got a couple of freezer plates and some grids for thoses too. Even have some of the thickness sensors with the little motor on them. Need to clean house.
    One way to outthink people is to make them think you think. They'll think you're not really thinking what you're trying to get them to think you think...........

    I will check on it and get back to you.

    Mr. Undertaker - I believe they are for a CH5 Whirlpool Cuber, most of the sizes I thought were all the same. Will check it out tonight and get back to you. Thank you!
