telephone poles or railroad ties

Until recently, a few OWB companies encouraged burning unseasoned wood. That has changed though.

 

Why burn a good corner post or landscaping timber? Just burn used tires.

 

I've been known to use cardboard every so often to kick start a fire, but that's about the extent of what I'll put in the owb short of actual wood, and the longer I go, the more seasoned it's become as I get further ahead.

Another poster mentioned burning cardboard to help the creosote release easier for cleaning, I may give that a shot.

 

the thread was a joke to see if i could get a laugh out of someone.
i would not dare burn them.

 

Double Dog dare you! Burn them.
You're a chicken if you don't! Bwack, bwack, cluck, cluck !!!

No, don't do that. It's bad. No!! it's bad !!

 

No You Burn Them.

 

yea when I got mine they said I could burn wood right off the stump. I burnt green wood the first year I had it but went back to seasoning my wood and found it burns better and longer than green.

 

I thought you were asking about what to use to stack on.

 

BWS, you know as well as anybody there ARE people who burn anything and everything.

 

I do to , nothing wrong with cardboard

 

A bit of cardboard or paper is just fine.

 

Is it possible that he gets permission to use it as an incinerator for things that require that kind of disposal? Figure it may not be super safe at all but probably better than burning it in a house and breathing that in...

 

Nice to learn about something regarding your wood. At least you know how to use it correctly now.

 

ouch.

 

pallets is what use.

 

I wasn't making fun of the dude, I just agreed on his observations.

 

Yeah, I know one of 'them' also: one day he was cleaning the ashes out of his stove and found these steel, "D" shaped things in there. ?? ?? ?? After considering it for a bit, he decided they were the steel toes from the boots he burned. And yes, I am serious and yes, that really happened.
