Found a cheap fix for creosote buildup in tight flues

I kept having trouble with heavy creosote in a narrow 6-inch flue where my regular brush couldn't reach the corners. Last month I tried wrapping a few chains around my brush head to knock off the stubborn stuff, and it worked way better than I expected. Has anyone else tried this trick, or do you have a better way to clean those hard to reach spots?

Stuck for an hour" sounds like an exaggeration honestly.

Buddy of mine tried that and his brush got stuck for an hour.
