When I was a bit younger, over the year I’d drag all the trimmings and deadfall on my property to a central pile. By hand. Then towards the end of winter I’d uncover the pile and light ‘er up! Was one of my favourite events of the winter. These days, it’s “composting in place”!

I built a stump pusher for a excavation company a while back. It was pretty simple deal, that slipped over the top of the blade in two places, then came down the face of the blade, and out of the front six foot in four places. The operator's loved it, said it kept the stumps from rolling up under the blade. Take care Chris.

At our old house several years ago the lot across the cul-de-sac was cleared for a house. It was a 2 acre lot, they cleared about 1.5 acres. It was a heavily wooded lot. The guy who did it stacked everything into one giant pile, then set it on fire and left. It wasn't a neighborhood, but it wasn't exactly rural either. The horse farm across the road, they had to find a place for their 3 or 4 horses. Horses don't like smoke and they were freaking out. Myself and the houses on either side of the lot finally called the county after 3 days of breathing smoke. The fire dept came out. They decided there was not much they could do, but since the guy didn't have a burn permit, they did checking. It turns out he didn't have a building permit, which would have included a permit to clear and he hadn't left some required buffers. Another contractor came out to rake the pile apart and put the fire out. That was billed to the lot owner.

Man you got lucky to burn during a major solar flare. Where I'm at Port Huron, MI and its 81° but in direct sun light it feels like 110°. Were even in a drought yet we've had alot of 60°-70° highs but lack of rain and clouds. We had a good wet spring then all of sudden it got hot and dry with the sun scorching rays but the cold air being funneled into the St. Clair river that is draining Lake Huron keeps us cooler.
@r1mein542 жыл бұрын
Being able to find hot coals in the bottom of the piles sure does save you straw bales and diesel to start a burn. I showed a group of cold wet teens how to start a fine in the Okefenoke Swamp in the mid 1980s with fat lighter. That engine on the Wilma dozer has a great exhaust resonance - perfect Hum.

I had my property catch fire on September 2nd one year. Mostly big old pine trees. Some of those stumps were still smoldering three months later even after several large rains. If they are insulated well so they are both deprived of oxygen and keep in the heat, they can smolder for months and months.
