"Rex" sat on a stool by his stove and wrote:

I have a shop heater consisting of a 55-gallon drum on
it's side.
chimney on one end, door and adjustable damper on the
other.

In the normal course of shop work anything made of paper,
wood or
cardboard goes into small cardboard boxes and gets packed
pretty firmly.
The resultant package get used oil added to it. It burns
quite well,
even hotter than I like if I get too ambitious with it
(big box, lots of
oil). this gets rid of waste paper, newsprint, boxes, and
oil. it
burns hot enough that it doesn't smoke.

I do the same thing, Rex! That barrell stove may not be the
most efficient
but sure feels good at -20F....;) In twenty years I've not
had to clean the
chimney, it's always burned out heh heh ........
