An Ember Shovel
21/04/2018
When multiple wood fires burn completely in a fireplace, residual embers hide under ashes.
Ashes are useless, at least in the hearth, but embers are ideal for restarting a new fire. Sometimes, a few bellows puffs suffice to ignite a new log placed over the embers.
The trouble is separating embers from ash. Hence the idea of an ember shovel (steel, obviously):
Now awaiting next fires in a fireplace to validate the concept.
