I had a tool maker where I work make me a hoe and I use a flat shovel to remove the ash. I have a dark brown stove . I thought yours was the same.  Oven cleaner works great  for cleaning the smoke stains off.

Very nice, thanks guys. Also how often are you guys scraping the creosote off the inside of the door? I just fired my stove up 2 days ago with well seasoned dry oak and there's already some creosote. Probably not that big of a deal in guessing

Well she's been running great for around a week now, yesterday the aquastat was going crazy, reading 182, then drop to 160 causing door to open, then within seconds it would jump back to 180 and door would shut. It did this sporadically all day. I called out to ridgewood and Tim was great and he thinks it's the aquastat that is bad, they are shipping one out to me immediately. I hope it's an easy fix
