I think 'jerkstove' bears the same relationship to 'jerk' and 'stove' that 'doughnut' has to 'dough' and 'nut'.

(My ancestors reputedly tied them in knots so they'd flip themselves over in the oil, like crullers.)
So, stove=? Stoat? Stuffer? Stoat stuffer?
Personally, I always pictured a jerkstove as somebody petulantly tugging on a potbellied stove as though it would have some useful result.
