Great learning video. Our washing machine died & we used the stainless steel washing bin inside to use as a fire pit, we placed it on bricks & it works great.
That's the fancy way. If you want to make a cheap and easy burn barrel for keeping warm at an outdoor location like a parking lot christmas tree stand, all we used to do was take a hatchet and pierce a bunch of 3 or 4 inch notches along the bottom and then tossed in scrap from the trees and broken up pallets and some cardboard and lit it up.
Superb instructional video, thanks Nate! Yes, in retrospect the legs bent U inside would probably be a better fit. Reminds me of the BBQ Brethren UDS thread :)
Im curious at the mindset of someone who seeks out a video on how to make something yourself, only to comment "thats too hard" on the easiest guide one can find. With no welding or expensive tools, anybody confident with the tools could do this in 2-3 hours if they went as slow as possible, Im sure i could get it done in an hour or so if i laid everything out beforehand. Many of the other diy incinerator guides include welding and acetylene torches, hand fabbing big bits out of mild steel... expensive stuff i cant afford
Great video! I just wish if it's going to say smokeless in bright red it's actually a smokeless burn barrel that would be nice not that I'm afraid of work but drilling a thousand and three holes and that much grinding and cutting I'm sure there is another way I'll be out with the next video shortly!
yeah, more like less-smoke. It was a lot of work, but I had fun doing it. It still works great and does a good job on burning hot and complete, with less smoke than a normal burn barrel - by far.
Before you do this, make damn sure the old contents of the drum were not flammable. Vapors can be just as explosive as the former contents, and guys have gotten killed cutting into "empty" drums that exploded. I was just reading about a guy in Pennsylvania who got killed by a burn barrel last week. There was another incident in Iowa that killed a man who was welding on top of an empty barrel, using it as a workbench. Filling the drum with water before cutting into it can displace explosive vapors, if done correctly.
You got to have a bit of smoke it wouldn't be a fire without any, got to make enough to go with your carbon footprint whatever that is to make a pair. All that smog we used to get in London in the 1950's and the early 1960's extra smoke on November 5th Guy Fawkes day.
@@henryrollins9177it'll get rid of pretty much anything you feed it. The idea is that the extra air increases the temperature and burns everything that would normally be released as smoke.
It's a BURN BARREL PEOPLE! It's not your fruity little backyard fire pit. Basically an incinerator! So you're not roasting marshmallows and having drinks around it.
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..
@@sanctealphonse4510 I hope you're being sarcastic. The video is edited to make it much shorter (we don't watch him drill all the holes and make all those cuts).
Stop hating with the “slick sh@&t comments!”. The world AMERICA wasn’t built in a day! My man is a genius! It takes trial, error and effort to come up with a innovative design. I have a couple of barrows that im gonna experiment in. Great work! Bro…!
@@bobbyl8614 Is that what you thought when you clicked on this? Have you ever seen a video where the length of the video was on the title? You need to go back to kindergarten.
I mean, in all honesty, I understood immediately. I just wasn’t aware it was a challenge for others. I apologize for my ignorance. Looks like we can both learn something from this helps for future viewings.
Smokeless burn barrel “update”: That flimsy “vortex creating” wood shelf at the bottom.....is now a rusted, heat deformed, non functioning shadow of its old self....😂 Final analysis: Buy some angle iron....and stick welder, and fabricate a proper burn platform that will actually last a few years.
You aren't building this in less than 12 minutes. Your video is 12 minutes. I saw someone else make this exact barrel in a different video so this is likely where you saw it also.
These barrel burner videos are so mind numbingly boring!! Must you show every inch of every cut! Every tedious hole drilling???! Thank heavens for the fast forward facility. I also mute them, mainly because I can't stand the accents!
This video is amazing. Just goes to show, with enough skill and innovation, diy projects are the best.
Great learning video.

Sounds easier.
I have one too. Lol.
These work great, much easier, can go to junk yard and get them
Inside? The house?
Oh what a great idea. Mine crapped out and was trying to figure some use for it rather than dumping it.

Thanks for posting it again just reminded me that I need one. I did go back and watch the first one you created.
Genius, great project!
Wonderful build and killer design. This is how you do a burn barrel! Kudo's! We're working on water filtering videos.
Good morning ☕ 🌞 Nate and Katie
Thanks for the instructions and inspiration to build on of these burn barrels.
In texas, a burn barrel is for trash burning, small branches, leaves, or house hold trash.
Superb instructional video, thanks Nate! Yes, in retrospect the legs bent U inside would probably be a better fit. Reminds me of the BBQ Brethren UDS thread :)
She's a beauty. Nice job.
Good video, suggestion but angle iron on bottom of barrel, do the squares for air flow, the base is more stable. Use the bottom of the barrel as base.
Thanks for sharing
Have a great weekend
Ingenious hopefully I can find someone to make it....
Wow, I was wondering and there it was! Awesome

Well built Nate. Very impressive
Good job Nate. Maybe could sell a few of these.
Cool, very nicely done!
Loved the video 😘👍🏻💕
A friend of mine asked me about the design of these today…glad I found this video again!
interesting project, thanks for sharing!
Great Job
Very cool
Thank you for the video. I was impressed with your angle grinder lasting so long. How many batteries did you go through?

So, basically make sure the fire can get oxygen so it burns hot enough to burn clean. Cool
Very interesting👍🇺🇸

Genius 💡 And the asthmatics in your vacinity thank you!! 👏✌
Wow!!! fantastic teaching..ty..xoxo
🥰🖐👍🤟✌🤪
Very very impressive use of the square.
Very nice tutorial...thanks
Great video thanks for sharing
Yes you can burn outside in rural areas but not when wind is blowing n need a permit
BEST burn barrel: cut top off. cut bottom off. set on three or four bricks. done. smokeless.
*Great job sir.* 😃👍
Thanks 👍
7/8th of an inch = approx 2cm. For those who use metric. :)
great job Nate hugsssss
BBQ anyone? lol. Aussie here.
What a rigmarole

Love it
Neat thanks
What is the purpose? Is it for cooking? Or smoking food ? Or just burning trash and clean up?
Probably burning trash.. . That's what I use my barrel for 🙂
@@tinabloomfield7228 Organic trash i guess...not plastic or so, isnt it?
@@henryrollins9177it'll get rid of pretty much anything you feed it. The idea is that the extra air increases the temperature and burns everything that would normally be released as smoke.
I use my empty 24' above ground pool for a burn barrel 🤪🤣👍🏼🤯 no liner of course 😁
I used an acetylene torch for all those holes. Much easier

'Building stuff is fun', isnt it?
I see what you did there😉
Reruns 😁
just with a voice over, lol. we never published the ASMR version so only a few folks have seen that one.
Does burning grass still smoke
This has got to be a prank!
Bruh you didn't have to lie about the time 😂
Just the first 3 cuts took you longer than 12 minutes
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..
Burning plastic creates major toxins and pollution. Better to landfill it.
I hope they don't ever mandate "smokeless" burn barrels because this is way too intense for my 65 y/o self.
If they ever did, they would make em to buy…
The video is 12 minutes, but it obviously took a lot longer to make this barrel.
How did you come to that conclusion?
@@sanctealphonse4510 I hope you're being sarcastic. The video is edited to make it much shorter (we don't watch him drill all the holes and make all those cuts).
The poster is retarded or either that he's a fraud.

This is a rip off of another design that's been around for a while. It's more clickbait.
i have a feeling this is going to take longer than 12 minutes
12 min was the video length, not the actual build :)
@@TheKraemerLife You suck for posting fraud clickbait. Thank for making the internet great. I have cure for cancer. Would you like some?
Nice, except you ripped off the "Building Stuff is Fun" video from a year ago!
I doubt that this barrel was completed in 12 minutes as the author claims.
The video is just under 12 minutes, not the project

1 hot fire bottom would be gone
So far it's held up. But it wont last forever, that's for sure.
90 * vane not aerodynamically spiralling, 40* be perfect

I'm trying to burn stuff lady not have a bonfire
Half the cuts ca n be done before your long seam cuts, less flimsy drilling them holes-dude
12 minutes is how long you made the video but this is not realistically going to take 12 minute.
Ummm smoke is fine. Drill some holes and be burning in 5 minutes. Too much thinking going on here.
WAY too much work! Maybe you should go into business & sell them?
Someone will one day…
I will
12 minutes? LOL😂
You aren't building this in less than 12 minutes. Your video is 12 minutes. I saw someone else make this exact barrel in a different video so this is likely where you saw it also.
🪚🔨
Less than 12 minutes? More UA-cam Crap Clickbait. Why not shorten the video to 2 seconds and call it DIY in under 5 seconds.
Too hard
Like my dikk
Too much work for a woman. Just get an old washing machine and take the washing bin out and use it as a fire pit. I have one and it works great. Lol
Amen
Inside? The house?
@@jamjar5716 No. I meant out.
You don't know some women that I know. Women are perfectly capable of constructing this, if willing.
@@tibbs4000 No, I don't know any women that can make something like that. I rather go buy one than built one. Time is money.
12 mins. Laughing my ass off. O that the video time.
These barrel burner videos are so mind numbingly boring!!
Must you show every inch of every cut! Every tedious hole drilling???!
