I just did the rear of the stove, exhaust fan was pretty clean! there was a decent build up of ash in the pipe going into the wall....now tomorrow morning will be the chimney! I just tried my cordless drill on the brush extensions and it will fit....so I will do a section at a time and use the drill and really hone the chimney! Not ready mentally for winter, but physically ready!
 
I plan on cleaning my St. Croix tomorrow... we did a living room remodel in late february until early April so my heating season was cut short. I had to un-install my stove to make room for furniture that was in the living room.

It's been sitting on my porch all spring and summer... looks kinda tired and worn out right now. needs a little paint work and a good suck job with my leafblower again... should be fun.
