Heavy-Duty Trash Burning Barrel

Heavy-Duty Trash Burning Barrel FARM HOME Miscellaneous 17-4-7 "We used to burn trash in old 50 gal. barrels but they continually burned out or got water in them and rusted out," says Chester Kimber, Amistad, New Mexico. "Another problem was that when I went to empty them, they were too heavy to lift into the pickup. So I got the idea of using a heavy pipe casing fitted with 3-pt. hitch brackets. It's a 30-in. dia. casing about 5 ft. long. For the bottom, I built a frame out of 2-in. pipe covered with wire mesh. Two short lengths of chain attach it to the bottom of the pipe."
