It's a rocket stove.. it burns real hot! Put some twigs underneath... pump some air and it's a jet burner.

That was for incinerating feral cats and wild critters that wouldn't go away.

those things are all over. Trash burners. Funny when I was growing up in the 80's, back yard burning was super common. Had burn day schedules sorta like watering days. Times have changed.

Trash burner was my guess as well. I'd like to build a rocket stove as well.

Looks like an old incinderator for burning trash.

^^^ This. In my younger years I lived in Culver City, CA and in our neighborhood ever house had a trash incinerator. The one you have is missing the burn chamber and chimney. Get one of these burning right and its like the charcoal starters, the burn hot with little smoke and reduce just about everything to a very fine ash powder.

Cool, thanks, guys. Didn't think about burning trash. Good to know what it is!

It's an old out house. Continue using it.
