Burning Hunk

Been running non stop since November and maybe 2.5 full cord. Creosote was just flakey with a very thin coating that was harder. Ran a soot eater knock off down it two times and 30 second later it's 90% clean.

Wood isn't quite ideal as some pieces were 30% while some measured at 12. Not bad considering I didn't start splitting until fall with various species and ages of logs, all by hand.

Is the thicker stuff in there gone now?
Is that liner rectangular at the top or is that just an illusion?
