My old steel brush finally gave up the ghost on a job in Boise last Tuesday
It was a brush I'd had for maybe eight years, the kind with the long handle you can add sections to. The wire just snapped off clean at the base on the third pass down a flue. In my experience, you can't really fix that, so I had to finish the job with my backup nylon brush, which just doesn't bite the same on heavy creosote. It got me thinking about how all my gear from when I started seems to be wearing out at once. Anyone have a steel brush brand they've stuck with for a good long while?

Had a Master Sweep steel brush last almost a decade. The bristles finally wore to nubs, but the thing never broke.

A decade is wild but like, it's a brush. How much drama can a steel brush really have?
