    i just bought this cyclone filter to help save my shop vac from the cleaning the stove. It worked well. 99% of the ash went into the bucket and not the shop vac.

    That's nice to hear. I've been thinking hard about getting one of those, but I'll use it in the shop.
    I take it this is the "start of season" cleaning?

    Went to Amazon to look this up and found one review that looked very ingenious:

    I like to keep things simple. Lots of other options listed on Amazon, but this looked like the most reasonable cost wise. I would prefer a metal bucket to attach that cyclone to.

    If you're at all handy, you can make your own too. LOTS of plans and how-tos.
    For the sake of expediency, buying one works.
