How to get them out and what to do with them then, they are different questions, no?
Sorry, dense here.

I bought and sold an old hearthstone without ever using it, I found a TON of nails in it when I cleaned it! But I just dumped them like the rest of the stuff into the holes the dogs dug in the yard! (Maybe I shouldn't have... they were deep holes though...)

I have the Oslo. Somewhere in the posts someone using an Oslo said they added just a loose strip of gasket material between the door and the interior to catch loose ashes that would otherwise fall out the door when loading or cleaning the glass.
Also, another tip someone else mentioned: Place a cookie sheet just under your wood burner door so when opening the door wayward ashes fall on to the cookies - makes for easier cleanup.

Mental note: Do not eat the cookies from Shari when she ships me a batch this Christmas.

It would be better to try some on and get a feel of them. Some are made with a heavier leather and more heat resistance.
And some are made from Zetex
Blatant overkill I know, but I got a really good discount on them and I can literally rearrange flaming logs in the firebox with no tools whatsoever.

You know, you took the words (and those cookies) right out of my mouth. Thank you. :lol:

I just pissed myself!fossil said:Accessories, oh gosh, let's see. Well, there's my man purse, of course (can't leave home without it). Oh, and my earrings. I have a couple of belts I really like. Oh, and hats...I love hats. I have all kinds of hats. And I have some absolutely dreamy shoes. Oh, wait!...no!...you're talking about woodburning accessories. Hmmm...nevermind, TMI, sorry. :red: Rick
PapaDave said:Shari, we KNEW what it should have said,...but that wouldn't have been nearly as much fun. ;-P
On a side note to that, my wife would never let me put the cookie sheet back in the kitchen, once used on the hearth. She's kinda' picky like that.
The thing about that is, I'm the cook, most of the time.

Aw, come on now FF, you just know ashes from a blue/black Oslo taste better than ashes from a flat black Oslo. (Dig, dig!)
All in fun, you know!
