Location: Chicago, Beverly | I thought Jake made Jake's. He is the original manufacture of Grandma's but he is not the current manufacture that I have seen on the shelves.

Location: Willoughby, Ohio | Jake & Pete had kind of a not very nice falling out a few years back. Jake does make jointed Grandmas. We have a pretty good supply of all kinds here in the Cleveland area. If you're looking for a specific one, let me know the pattern & size and I can see if there is one around here at one of the shops. Yes, his factory did burn down a couple of months ago. An exhaust fan caught fire and lit up the place. The last I heard is that he is trying to be back in production by the end of summer. Hard luck!  Jake is a decent guy and I hope things come back stronger than ever for him & his family |

Location: Willoughby, Ohio | I figure it's between Pete & Jake and none of my business. I don't know the whole story and what I do know is only second hand, so I'll leave it to someone more knowledgeable on the matter to comment. |

Location: Jamestown, Pa. | Very good reasoning Worm Drowner and I totaly agree on that decision. My knowledge of it is NOT second hand and I feel the same as you and that it is THEIR business and should remain that way. Anything beyond that is considered gossip. I commend you Worm Drowner for being a sensible person.
