I'll see one of those large Dalek's , abandoned here or there, when traveling around the state, cannot remember what they do
Where I grew up, they were called a wigwam burner. They were used to burn waste products left over from the manufacture of wood products in the lumber and plywood manufacturing industries.
 
I like that part of the country. Not a lot of people live there …usually pretty 👍
Most definitely! There all the way to the Rockies! I grew up hunting the Klamath NWR and had family friends in K-falls and Lakeview. Also chased Chuckar out around Denio. Great country, but YOU must be ready to Self Rescue.

The mosquito festival will be missed.

The by products of lumber and plywood production are too valuable to burn now even if you could. Back in the late 80's when I was working for Weyerhaeuser we would send 1x4's to the chipper because they were worth more as chips for paper pulp than finished lumber. Now with oriented strand boards (OSB) the demand is even higher for wood chips now.

Spent many an hour helping my father pull lily pads (1x12x24) off green chain before they went to the Hog. SPI has most of their mills running Co-generation plants using the waste to make their own electricity. Back then my father was given permission to pull Trim Ends for use in his High School classroom. I’m glad to know that I could do the labor but along with irrigating it focused me on expanding my potential into engineering. I’m still thankful for the work experience, so I try to avoid doing the designs that “book engineers“ are infamous for.

Dayum! That thing STILL gives me the Heebee Jeebees! Almost lost my thumb to one in a plastic plant after college. We used it for grinding up old HDPE pipe for recycling. A big batch of heavy duty razors making little pieces from big pieces.
Im thankfully for a full bin and a fantastic Orthopedic Surgeon.
