    Found a picture.
    Used to be Saw mill waste, now used for many things.
    Not the best firewood because it's mostly
    "sap wood" (the outside few inches of a many trees , it is soft & rots easy)
    Up side, it's thin & dries fast, & usually pretty cheap (sometimes free)

    Does this count as " a little ash"?

    WOW
    The fron of mine looked clean, but when I pulled it,
    it looked almost as bad on the chimney side.

    Bet you get much better performance when that ones cleaned too. LOL :)
    Good catch.
    You just find it like that ?

    Mine was so bad I had to bypass the cat or the room filled with smoke.

    Do I win the ugliest cat award?
