SMOKELESS BURN BARREL Incinerator

My old burn barrel has seen better days. In this video, I create a smokeless burn barrel. One step, that I don't show in the video, is applying high temperature paint to the barrels. This will protect it from the elements and prevent it from rusting. A more detailed build for this project can be found here: • Smokeless Burn Barrel

Watched my buddies build a few of these and let me tell you, this is a master-burning DIY unit! Thank you for sharing.

[@mrfrankbosh]

Thank you for posting, very charitable. Please continue to post. Learning from others saves us all money and time.

[@trevorwhat]

Really great work. Big thanks for putting this video together.

[@jonathansgarden9128]

I love watching people's ingenuity like this. I'm going to make a similar design when my cheap used barrels get delivered this week!

[@mwelsh2]

Awesome! Some incredible stories and perspective from a really cool person. Cheers Rick. Great job!

[@joetheplumber5781]

Thank you for this video brother! My next project 👍🏼

[@lancerudy9934]

Looks great. Thanks

[@goldotl]

Great video!

[@1620GarageAndFarm]

Great build, I just did the same design on mine !!

7/8 in. SHOCKWAVE IMPACT DUTY Hole Saw works awesome over the uni-bit.

[@haroldhprittjr7007]

You can use a old hot water thank for the inside peace . It’s thicker metal and it will last longer . Most are 14 inches and bigger. This is one hell of an idea . It’s not bad till you get two or three negbors burning in cans with no holes in plain drums . All it does is smolder for hours I’ve seen times they still would be smoking the next day . Besides if your not heating with it you want it to burn as hot and as fast as you can . This way it burn’s completely then the fire dont last long . Keeping every thing safe insted of tending to the fire you can go on and do something way more important. The best thing is not smoldering for days stinking up the neighborhood ! Stay safe and thanks for the video maybe we can get every one that burns doing this !

[@Lou13Cyf3r]

no safety glasses?!?!? that's a special kinda special

[@marcuspi999]

A sawzall reciprocating saw will go through those cuts 20 times faster and not as loud.

[@impetus444]

I love hard work. I can watch other people do it all day! After watching half of this video, I think I'm ready to drop the $350 on a store bought unit lol. Thanks for making the video though, it was a fun watch.

[@trebledog]

@impetus444 - $350 really, seriously where? Home Depot? Lowes? Hell, I'll make these even snazzier and charge you $200, just kidding. It just seems like a lot of money for a couple of 55 gal barrels that will rust out in a couple of seasons.

[@williamevans6522]

Used SS WASHING MACHINE tubs are free for the taking- along with the inop machine... craigslist FREE section. Even seen SS 55 gal drums, once, there, as well.

[@kevinmccb]

I'd recommend a chain connected to strap while cutting away the 5 inches out of the smaller diameter barrel, my cut wheel found traction and cut the strap where you precut the middle.

[@ramrack6301]

How did you disappear like that the end? Good video. What kind of blade do you cut the metal with?

[@trebledog]

How good is the smoke control when burning semi green waste.

[@boobtube6660]

gr8 job .

[@thecreativetake]

It looks real sturdy. I bet it lasts a long time!

[@willberness6697]

I still have to apply a high temperature paint to the barrels. That will have to wait until it's above 50 degrees. Once I do that, hopefully it will last awhile. Thx

[@G5questman]

Lol he does remind me of the actor in The Boondocks Saints! Awesome reference for this! 😂

[@georgeosborne3585]

How many post are for PPE from armchair techs that have never used a grinder?

[@DoyleHargraves]

I bet you had the best "grinder boogers" after all that cutting. Btw, take this from a guy who has been in and around welding and steel fab for most of his life. Flannel and sweaters do not mix with sparks and high speed rotating power tools. When picking clothing for cutting & welding, imagine whether sparks will bounce off your clothing or get caught in the fabric. I have known welders to get their FR (flame retardant) shirts starched 3 times heavier than normal to improve deflection.

[@willberness6697]

Wish I had this advice before starting. Yeah, I had to throw out the fleece I was wearing. It was full of metal.

[@tylerandhannah9686]

Very cool. Just put out video with barrel

[@papaspage2001]

Thanks for sharing, Thumbs up 👍

[@willberness6697]

thx for watching

[@ropeca1958]

Building stuff is fun

[@jamesiversen]

Lol, I see what you did there.

[@markevanado9463]

What size are the legs on the red barrel? 3.5”x3.5”?

[@thegreenthing7603]

Was wondering if you burn plastic, will it still produce smoke? I have a recycling plastic granulator and screen mesh is use to filter dirt from plastic melt and overtime, this screen gets clogged up and the only solution is to burn the screen with plastic melt in it..

[@helishskills]

Thank you for sharing this with us, can I ask you please what is the smoke like with green waste? Have you tried burning green waste yet? 🙏

[@willberness6697]

There is a bit of smoke when burning green wood. It’s much less than a conventional burn barrel

[@Silverhand57]

Nice work my friend! the only thing you should consider is to redo the bottom grate without all the holes. It is what gives the flame its swirl which helps a clean burn. By perforating the bottom grate so much it isn't getting the full swirl to the air flow and that will cause an inefficient burn. It is more than efficient enough for a burn barrel though :)

[@angetodac]

So what's the principle of how it works...can u build a toilet waste incinerator that could replace the septic tank?

[@helihoot]

I ended up pulling out the acetylene torch for the holes. Fast

[@markevanado9463]

Are both of those 55 gallon barrels?

[@willberness6697]

Yeah, they’re both 55 gallon

[@lustfullashes4427]

Thanks for sharing. Do you or can you make to order?

[@willberness6697]

Thx. No I don’t make these to order

[@trebledog]

@Lustful - How much are you willing to pay for one of these, with your name engraved, any color as long as it's black. Plus shipping.

[@lancerudy9934]

Is the electric cord plugged into gfi plug?

[@rbtrbnt6545]

how long does this build last? also, please make a video when burning plastic, etc.

[@willberness6697]

I was working on it at night after being at my job. I spent a few hours on it every night. I’d say it took me 2 days of work. if I was working on it all day. If you have a better cutting tool (mine isn’t very good) you could probably do it a lot faster.

[@rronmar]

Thin burn barrels don’t last long, the heat cooks the carbon out of the steel and they rust away pretty quickly. To burn plastic without your neighbors turning you in(big fine for illegal burn where I live), you need to get them much hotter than this thing will get. you basically need a waste oil burner(stainless steel burn chamber and pre-heated forced air…

[@rbtrbnt6545]

@@rronmar thank you for your reply. I will keep using brick then. No fine in my country

[@trebledog]

Please do not burn plastic. You can recycle instead.

[@rbtrbnt6545]

@@trebledog depends on the place you live, actually. In my place there is no such service

[@lancerudy9934]

No PPE

[@rronmar]

It might work a little better with less primary air. Too much primary air and the chimney effect carries the unburnt gas up and out before the heat can fully break it down… The fire pits I build need almost no primary air to burn clean. But a tall chamber like this would need some…

[@willberness6697]

Once the fires stoked up, there’s virtually no smoke. When I’m getting the fire started initially there’s a bit of smoke.

[@Dilborg]

@@willberness6697 The tabs at the top maybe need to be inclined inward slightly more to help with that. One way to control the primary air with these is to use paver sized bricks around the base as a "starter choke". Great video! Was nice to see someone else struggle with the legs.

[@sold1million]

Who did it first ? You or other guy with a millions of views?

[@cowboy6591]

Wonder if this dude's alright. He hasn't posted anything in a long time.

[@davemaya7487]

Good job, however unsafe without a safety glass when grinding and drilling.

[@willberness6697]

You’re absolutely right

[@grierkirkpatrick7870]

Please wear them so we all can enjoy your future offerings as well. 😎

[@jonwelch564]

Found the office boy! 🤦‍♂️

[@shakey84cj]

No safety glasses? Seriously!? You’re beggin for it.

[@wallypoly563]

One month ago, a sorry excuse for a person commented about losers telling you to wear safety glasses. I can't get my head around that kind of stupidity. Wearing safety glasses while cutting metal is absolutely the correct thing to do. Think how sorry you'd be if you lost an eye just because you didn't want to take the time to put on glasses. So, don't listed to Jason matthew and we won't have to call you Dead Eye.

[@aneupgraffixlosangelesca7048]

seriously! it happens so quick.

It's painful watching an underpowered cutoff try to do the job of a $10 harbor freight grinder.

[@willberness6697]

You’re telling me

[@richardscarlett7942]

how about you give the person or channel the mention for showing you how to do this because there are much older videos on YT showing this exact same process. It a scummy thing to do , to steal someones content or idea and not give them the recognition. Blocking channel.

[@rrud59]

Just came to see how many losers told you to wear safety glasses

[@willberness6697]

I’m sure I’ll here it. That’s on my list of things to purchase

[@Phonehomefool]

Professionals wear safety gear, Jason is obviously not. Don’t be like Jason

[@bsrsonptyltd5854]

Sorry stopped watching 30 sec in. If you are gonna teach people something that has been shown in KZbin more times before, don't do it without safety glasses when cutting with an angle grinder.

[@jackkb2txr833]

All you are doing is the same thing every one is doing on youtube why is it

[@willberness6697]

Because it’s a good idea

[@jasondouble747]

Your not forcrd to watch pal,, i have watched a few of these all have some advantages to them, that way i can pick and choose the good ideas
