Stump burning

[@jamestboehm6450]

Yes sir, a before and after would have been great.

[@timberray9572]

I can make a quick update video next time I'm out there.

[@shanefox5636]

I thank U for your video and all time and energy. Some helpful tips: One, it is a "smoke show" due to fact your fire cannot DRAFT. It has no clean air to DRAW from lower section of barrel. Solution: Cut eight 4inch holes (spaced evenly) at base. Same level as feed port. Next: Remove top completely, no top / stack needed. YES.. U will NEED approximately 3-5 times the wood to accomplish this same mission.. but.. NO SMOKE. and now.. a person in any neighborhood could do this w/o fear of fire department being called. Happy burnin..!!

There is an easier way for those who cannot burn in their area or do not have the time. Save all used OILs and Fats from cooking every day and pour or spreads them over the stump. We have done this a lot with 5 acres of stumps from clearing for improvements. The BUGS and Wood peckers will do the rest, as the oils and fat degrade the stump right down to the roots. We covered over half the stumps with cooking oils from our home and had family members save their oils for our use. Soon you will be amazed as I was when I ran into a stump on my garden tractor accidently and the stump crumbled. I was able to remove the stump with a shovel.

Thanks for the advice, the goal of this burner is to smolder for a long time that is why I have only one vent hole. This way I can light it and walk away for a while without having to restoke it every fifteen minutes.

Hows it look now?

[@timberray9572]

I will do an update soon.

I think when you become a property owner you automatically become more conscientious.

[@hydewhyte4364]

The problem I've always had with burning out a stump is that I've seen roots burn up to 15' away for days.

Can't say I have had that problem.

[@timberray9572]

@@joelrudzinski6829 I will absolutely try your method.

[@Rickimusic]

I'm trying to smoke out Washington, eh?

[@cditzler6313]

I actually love all the smoke because I dont like any of my neighbors haha

[@timberray9572]

Also good for repelling mosquitos.

[@naturundhund]

Cool 😎

[@timberray9572]

No, it's quite hot haha

[@robinrowe8025]

Im thinking about trying this but hesitating sense its a few about 6 feet from the road i don't look live in the city limits

[@timberray9572]

Make sure you follow your local rules and regulations, thanks for stopping by.

[@spud0587]

Show us an after when you can.

[@timberray9572]

Will do.

[@aliadam2375]

You are smart, you know how to use your mind and burn the rest of the trees at a lower cost than others who do not use their minds, most of them are stupid

[@timberray9572]

Well there are many good ways of getting rid of a stump, I learnt this method from reading an old Farmers Companion book.

[@SC-by6bv]

Thought all the smoke was from Canada eh; now I know it’s you trying to burn that stump. Well I guess if you got that kinda time….

[@timberray9572]

I am from Canada

[@dirttdude]

You must have hardwoods, I have only softwoods on my property.

[@dirttdude]

@@timberray9572 its all Douglas Fir, i use Potassium nitrate, or 'stump rot'.... takes two years to rot a stump out

[@timberray9572]

The stump in the video is quite large and I will probably have to light it up one or two more times.

[@Woody615]

I wonder what would have happened if you had applied the blow torch to the smoke coming out. I wonder if it would have ignited.

[@timberray9572]

I'm trying not to start a forest fire, but somehow I don't think the smoke would ignite.

[@Woody615]

@@timberray9572 I seriously doubt that you would be able to start a forest fire. it would only be flames right at the top of the chimney.
