Love watching your projects! Envious of your skills and your creativity and courage to look it up and get it done! Inspiring!! Seeking to utilize your can do attitude to a my manuscript! Also, like the camera, you, and the music! Thank you for what you do!!!
My best ever burn barrel. Use a porcelain or stainless steel drum from a washing machine mount the drum from a dryer on top of it. Use a galvanized trash can lid with some small holes in it for a lid. Burns hot and near complete without a lot of sparks. Washer drum without the dryer top works excellent too.
You want to cut 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 inch flaps in the barrel. Push them into the barrel about an inch, All pointing the same way so that the air will swirll. Put these flaps from the bottom to the top.
I love the fact that you are doing things that some people will not. But the bits that you are using are wood bits. You need to use metal bits for this type of application.
I drill a hole in the top large enough to accept a jig saw blade and cut the top off with that. Makes for a nice cut, and I don't have to worry about shooting sparks all over the place or burning a hole in my hoodie.
My neighbour nearly lost his head cutting the top off and oil barrel, so I wouldn't recommend a cutting torch. Have more control with a jigsaw to cut a straight line I find as it a lesser aggressive saw.@@mammam8546
.. set the barrel in a field with a few pieces of tape spots for targets on it .... may as well get a little target practice while creating a few holes .... might need a magnum though .. or a rifle ..
LOL I knew you were gonna give me shit about that comment. You’re right! Maybe some of them are dull because your kids always be borrowing them. 💚💚💚 LOL
Why didn't you just use the step drill? Precision is not important, so.... Personally, I prefer to use my "sawsall" because there are no sparks and it makes a better, cleaner cut especially for round cut like removing a barrel top. Cheers from the middle of nowhere in Alberta, Canada.
You hold the angle grinder backwords. If had kick you got it in your body. That can be seious without te guard.I just say.because angle grinder and chainsaws should not beeing used before good information. Best regards and take care. Not mean to patronized you. I an´m just a very much doer and have spent lot oft time in emergencies waitroom because I do before I think.
Rachel you are an absolutely delightful young lady. I don't know why YT recommended this video, but you have a new subscriber.

Love to see a woman who can do projects! Your awesome!
Thanks so much!
You keep at it, make some bio-chard for later use.
Will come in handy for plants, filtration, etc. 🤙
Hell yeah that’s on the list! Thanks for watching. 🫶🏼
About 1990 I made one over at my Grandparents using an air chisel to take the top off, chisel works great but the noise is out of this world.

Wow, and to think about all the burn barrels created with just a barrel and the pointy end of a pick for banging in the holes. lol
I want more air for more power!!! LOL
Awesome!
Thanks!
I d use a center punch to start the drill

Well done. 😊
Thank you! It was so fun.
Great video, get a drill bit sharpening jig. Then get all the drills ready to go.

That's a good one too! Fortunately no hoodies were damaged in the making of this barrel. LOL
Jigsaw aw heck get the sawzall out with a metal blade or better yet get the torch

Ask all your friends ( mostly guys ) if they have a nibbler, or a plasma cutter. Someone will.
Cuteness x 10 !

This video a banger
Next time, cold chisel and a hammer. That top would be opened up before you can plug the grinder in.
LOL!

My dad said the same thing about the step drill! Now I know. LOL I do much more woodworking than metalworking usually. cheers!
