    You could always try drilling several holes and fill them with TH3 Thermate. It's easy to make, legal as long as you dont store it and burns incredibly hot. It is an exothermic reaction that has it's own oxygen feed from the iron oxide.
    Side note, your blower idea was on the right track, but your other vent holes ruined it.

    When we were kids in Kentucky my grandpa told me to get rid of the old stump in the middle of a new paddock where we were about to move the jackass. We tried everything. Every time we went into the house for some lemonade the old fart would just laugh out loud, call us dummies, and spit his chew into a nasty old spittoon with splatters everywhere. Finally, when everybody went to bed, my brother and I snuck out and went into the shed where the old coot kept his dynamite. We had never used dynamite before, but we had seen him use it to blow up a big old bluerock section of the farm, so we figured if he could do it so could we. During the day we had used a hand drill to drill holes in the top like this guy did and tried diesel, and it failed, but the holes were still there. So we stuck the dynamite in the holes, pulled the wicks about ten yards, lit them, ran like hell, and hid behind the shed where we could see the stump and the backdoor. Three sticks of dynamite were way too much and when it went off I lost my hearing for about two minutes. All I could hear was buzzing when my brother starting laughing and pointing at the backdoor. The back of the house had caught fire and the old man was naked as a jaybird, dong flapping as he ran from the well to the house with bucket after bucket to douse the fire. Was funny as hell until we got a dirty lickin up one side and down the other that hurt for days. But dammit, that stump was nowhere to be found. We had a hole the size of a Buick where the old stump had once mocked us. I still, to this day, think that was the highlight of my childhood. If only I had a little Kodak in my pocket to shoot the old man, long white whiskers flapping in the wind as he ran, dong dancing up and down and his eyes as wide as headlights. Good times.

    Try thermite it burns at 4000 degrees. It is used commercially to weld railroad tracks together. I believe if you made a 4x4 plunge cut and used that to contain the reaction it would work well. There are lots of videos on how to make it. The simple formula is: iron oxide + aluminum w/ magnesium to catalyze the reaction being a self oxidizing reaction air would not be a issue.

One excellent chemical to add to the mix would be powdered aluminum. Don't breath the smoke. Burning metal will bring the temp up really high. With respect to the diesel gas mixture you were using... I don't think I would want gasoline anywhere around something this hot.

Stuffed two sticks of dynamite in each hole with one blasting cap each, tamped it down with clay, connected all of the blasting cap leads together, walked 50 yards back to the car, lifted the hood and touched off the blasting caps on the battery. Mr. Stump jumped straight up out of the ground about ten feet but was stopped in his flight by the still-attached roots and he slumped back to earth, looking all sad. We sprayed dirt and rocks in all directions for about 50 yards. It's a miracle the windshield of the car wasn't smashed and that we weren't hit. Got Mr. Stump out, though.

    @mikegrant8490 Před 5 lety +7

    One thing not to do is rely on flammable liquids. Next, if you build a better chimney by reducing the diameter of the top by 1/2 or more, you'll increase the ability of your can to hold in the heat, creating a natural turbocharger effect without much more any additional inflow pressure, turning your can into nice cherry red and reducing the stump in hours. Add air as needed to keep the turbo effect going. Experiment with some stove pipe and a damper (4 to 6 feet is enough) to make a really scary jet engine effect. You'll know it when you've got it dialed in with a true tornado of blue flame coming out of the top, a fair bit of noise and the barrel or can turning from cherry red towards a white hot almost melting the can heat. Since you went to all the trouble of drilling the holes into the stump, take and drill a few more and direct air through some old steel piping under the stump, turning itself into a burning chimney inside the confines of the can. Don't waste the heat, confine it, which is reducing the carbon by the rapid oxidation more quickly. Go very hot or go home.

It's not going to jump out of your hand and run to the fire while pulling you along with it. You shouldn't go trying to pour gasoline on a bonfire that's raging 3ft high, but if you are trying to get a small fire started with nothing but a match, gasoline will make that much much easier. Or if you are, for example, trying to get a large fire started (like him in the video) then it's a pretty good choice. Gasoline is flammable but ffs, people gotta stop being so scared of everything. And one more thing, if you don't understand just how flammable gas is then it's easy to tell people to "IGNORE IT AS A POSSIBILITY AT ALL COSTS OR ELSE YOU WILL DIEEEEE A HORRIBLE DEATH" whereas if more people had that experience with gasoline already, then they are more than aware of it's capabilities and will lead to more people being careful with it.

You may have to figure out a way too drain the area around the stump first. Also, whatever chemicals and accelerants that you use, will get into the water table for a distance, so be careful.

      @Ken Mason For weeds I either put down lands scape fabric or newspaper that I wet soak and lay several sheet s thick. Then I put my much down. I agree roundup and petroleum are not great to drink. I have been to a few French fry fires that ended badly for the potatoes and the homeowner. So by that I have seen first hand how well vegetable oil burns. 👮‍♂️

    Maybe start out by drilling lots more holes, then over time marinating the stump in diesel or kerosene. Then (maybe?) build an enclosure around the whole thing (maybe out of bricks?), put a good-sized smokestack on top, so basically you have a blast furnace. Then, drill a hole (your 4-incher) in the middle, dig down around the stump, drill in (maybe several spots) to make air holes, and start a fire (maybe with your anthracite?) in the hole in the middle.
    Maybe there should be a Nobel Prize for removing huge stumps... :D

    Try drilling holes and add Potassium Nitrite (KNO3) in them and stump will rot.

      or he could add some potassium perchlorate to his charcoal with a little sulfur and watch the stump
      just "pop" out of there.

    Steel fire ring around the stump.
    Fill with wood, light it and enjoy.
    Should get all the roots.

      I can vouch for this the rim of an old valley irrigation tire should fit all the way around it and then do a bonfire

    I cut up Magnesium aircraft parts, took the saw dust of Magnesium and put in numerous holes. Dump Jet A on it for two weeks. Lit it off using my plumbing torch. Once the Magnesium took it burned for two weeks.

    My uncle used to use dynamite, he told us to stand back about 200m but when he detonated the blasting caps bits of tree stump were raining down all around us,
    we probably should of been wearing hard hats but we didn’t worry about them because he said he was a professional!?!?

    drill two holes that meet, one straight down, one on an angle. Like a rocket stove.

    Feed air from the bottom
    Heat rises and so will the flames
    Make several tornado vents on the side so the fire will pull air in and push it up

    In the 1980s I tried a bag of anthracite coal . And quickly found out I need a roaring wood fire to get the coal burning
