[QUOTE="Richard Burley, post: 449193, member: 1690"] No, to using pipe cleaners while there's a filter inside. Re the balsa filters, if I remember correctly, they will jam the airflow if inserted too far either way--either too far into the mortise, or too far into the tenon. Try to get them to "float." (It's been so long since I used them--take this with a grain of sodium chloride.) They aren't really filters; they just absorb moisture, restrict the airflow somewhat, and I assume swell up. Needless to say, I don't use them, but I can see their usefulness for some smokers. [/QUOTE]
