Default tips on stump burning?

Thermite won't hurt, but will not be a great help. The problems in
buring stumps are that you have one big chunk of fuel that has
limited surface area.
So the heat radiates away. Which is why surounding it with a barrel
helps. It keeps the heat in. The other thing that helps is supplying
oxygen. So a blower also will help. My idea of ideal would be two
barrels one inside the other and a blower forcing air in to the space
between the barrels and then to the stump. Have never tried this, but
it sounds good in theory.

How about mixing up some thermite and pouring that into the holes?
