[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 144284, member: 360"]It is indeed a cast-iron hotplate. The indentation in it is where you jemmied in the iron crowbar to lever the plate off of your old-fashioned wood or coal-fired cookstove. Then you could dump more fuel inside and then you slowly lowered the hotplate back down and twisted the bar off of it and put it away out of sight.[/QUOTE]
