Ok folks, check this out! I put new line on the soot eater today and swept. The old line was under 5 inches! I expected more crap this year because of this, but not this much more! 3 gallons worth or so! The top of that pile is 8 inches, firebox is 18" across and around 12" deep!
Reamed out the pipe today, got a little less stuff out then I did last year. But I made a boo boo, forgot to take the probe out prof it happened I shoved some ashes to the back so I would have a layer of ash when I was done Bent it up a little bit but, no worries though , probe straightened right out. Seems to be working just fine
oh I get right in there man !! just got dirty, no injuries. I have to take the bricks and the tubes out of the top of the stove. The probe is for the digital thermometer
