And this is?

[Bowow]

Creosote? Or is this normal for inside the pipe?

Not sure what this is we are looking at. Yes, that looks normal.

This is part of a 90 deg 6 inch chimney pipe. Is this bad? This was about a foot from the stove up into chimney

It's a mild layer of creosote. Nothing unusual there.

I assume the 90 is busted then, it shouldn't come apart like that.

 

[Bowow]

Ok it made me nervous. Didn't know if this was normal. New to wood burning

 

[Bowow]

Yea I broke it accidentally

Do yourself a favor and upgrade that pipe to 22 gauge pipe with welded or factory crimped seams. It will last a lifetime and it won't come apart in your hand.

Well, then just grab another 24 gauge 90, it'll work ok till you get that liner.
