Not showin' - just proud - hmmmmmm.... does 'proud' = 'showin'? :) :)

That is what forums are for. Part of it for sharing info and part of it for showing off. Everybody does it.
Just look at how many new saws, axes, splitters, tractors, trucks, trailers, or how much wood I have, or how neat my stacks are. It just part of the community. So go for it I say, what ever the reason.
 
I didn't use no high falutin' measuring device.. but this is two years between sweeps, 24 foot of chimney... little over 5 cords burned. (It was also the first time I tried sweeping into the firebox. Never again)

Where ya gonna sweep to next time?
 
Disconnect the offset box and put a bag under the stove pipe. I have done it that way before, Pretty easy except I have to re-caulk the box/collar interface.. I thought that a pain until I removed the baffle in the Manny.. (something I hope to never do again..)
