Making those cuts on the stump created a "swedish stove log" which is a great way to make a camp fire stove in the woods and is also a great way to fuel a fire as the slits create enough air flow to keep the fire hot as hades.

I went to a battery operated chainsaw by Makita and love it. We had stumps at our lake cabin so last summer I did about the same thing just kept adding wood like a campfire and eventually the stump was below ground level. That was a very satisfying project.

nice out takes at the end and good job

I used this stuff called "Stump Out" made by a company called Bonide, it's a granular mixture that kills the tree and accelerates decomposition of the stump. I had a 10" English Walnut tree that was completely healthy when I cut it down. I drilled four 1" holes vertically down into the stump about 4-5" with a spade bit and filled them with the mixture and then filled the holes with water, I then covered the stump with a bucket to keep my animals safe (these were the directions on the label). The stump seeped water out of the holes for over two weeks and it was completely dried out in about 90 days, the wood was now very spongy & brittle, the tree was as dead as Caesar. Instead of digging it out I went with label option #2 - I took four hot charcoal briquets from my chicken BBQ and placed them over those holes after I drilled intersecting holes that came in at 90 degrees from he sides to draft. The stump burned like a coal (no flames) for most of the day, it even burned the roots that went down and branched out 12-18" underground! When it quit smoking I squirted the ashes with the garden hose and had to add a bunch of dirt to level the hole it left, great stuff and it's all I use now on anything 6" or bigger. A jug of Stump Out (16oz, enough to do my tree) was less than $8.00 at Home Depot and it did ALL of the work.

Sulfuric acid works well, just drill hole and pour it in. I can imagine if you get high percent of acid, not the watered down stuff, it would eat the stump away in days not week. The acid from the mine is rates like 100% and if you were to get it on you would be going to a hospital. I would love to get some of that stuff.

In my fire district we issue burn permits and if we get called out to a burn like this (without a permit), we'll jockey our hose right up to it & put it out if you're not willing to come down to the station to get a permit. The idea of the permit is so when neighbors or passersby call in the fire, they won't call us out, so we're not wasting time & resources!

Hilarious last scene :)

I used an old leaf blower with an old metal vacuum cleaner pipe (4' or longer), to focus the wind into the center, and it really sped things up.

Had to have an old red maple cut down, maybe a little bigger than your tree. That cost me 1000 dollars. Then stump grinder came over and said 800 to grind that stump. Went down to 775 after much protesting. Other "stump grinder" came out and said he didn't have the right equipment and didn't give me a price. Now i see how nice your stump looks after burning.

Pinal County Arizona, you can have a recreational fire two feet diameter, three feet high 365 days a year. Fire depart was told to go home. I dig around and down two feet, I burn all the left overs in the same hole. It can take days to burn one out Hard wood trees take longer. You needed a lot more digging before you lit it on fire. It is the best way to get rid of unwanted stumps or trees. Grinding a stump is a waste of time. I own 55 acres, and placing a burn barrel over the stump works well also.

At the phone looks so much cooler tho

I like how you added the sound effects of crackling wood over the speed up footage instead of the really annoying 'Alvin and the Chipmunks' sounds that are produced by playing the real audio from the footage. Nice touch, very professional.

Good suggestion especially in a sub! Might want to look into fashioning a 'smokeless burn barrel' too..... takes down all the fly ash.... Plenty DIY instructions on line!

Or could have mount it with moist compost and covered it with a thick sheet of plastic and just let it rot out for two months😅

If you can deal with smoke, pile grass clippings on it as you burn it. It insulates the fire and the stump slow burns for a couple days and completely obliterates all root systems.

Always use motor oil or diesel Godbless and Godspeed ✌️.

drill deep holes and soak it with motor oil, wait a day or so so the oil can be absorbed then light and it wont go out.
