Yeah I make y own but not hard oak, I just use soft cedar shakes, buy at HD in a big bundle.
Heat grill, use narrow end of shake/shingle and toss (burn) after 2-3 uses.
The soft and thin profile allows it to “wrap” around the grill bars better

I'll be using mine more now.  I cleaned my grill Saturday and something on the drip tray caught my eye.  Put on my glasses and looked and sure enough there were a couple of SS bristles off of my wire brush on it.  I'm going to whittle some starter grooves in the paddle and go with it and my other plastic bristled brush.

I'm also going to look for these just for good measure.  Good idea!

Bushopper - "glasses"? Are you getting old too??

 I always WIPE my grates after scraping or brushing. Just in case.

Naww!!  My arms just got too short!   

I think I'll start wiping them down, too.  Seeing those bristles made me decide to go a different direction for grate cleaning.

A grill stone works really well. Lowe’s and Home Depot sell one that’s not as dense as they ones used on a griddle. I also use a big ole ball of tin foil.
Last year I bought a brush made by Weber and it seems to be much better made than the square plastic ones.
