i once heard of a man puting fireworks in his wood stove to dispose of them
Did you really :censored:We kids occasionally would throw a 22 shell or two in the cookstove. Did wonders for getting Mom's blood pressure up in the morning.

A friend of mine use to live besides his drunk azz belligerent BIL .
One winter he noticed that he was going through firewood at a faster pace than the fires he was making , suspecting the BIL he drilled a piece of wood . inserted a 12 gauge shell in it with the shot cut off and plugged it .
That winter must have turned a lot milder because his firewood never lasted so long .
I want to live vicariously through you. How about you try it and report back to us?
I have one of those spray foam guns, the kind you screw the can of foam onto, I got it for gluing insulated concrete forms together. I had a can of solvent to clean the gun, I think it was mostly acetone. Couldn't get it to work, no propellant, it was old when I bought it, I think. Threw it in the wood boiler whole, there was a hot fire going. Didn't know what to expect.
About 20 seconds later there's a BOOOM shook the whole wood boiler, blew ash out the door louvers and a big cloud of ash out the chimney. Didn't think it would cause any damage since it wasn't in a sealed chamber and the firebox is 1/4" plate. That was fun but I won't do it again. Pretty much blew the top off the can but that was enough. I was hoping to dislodge some of the creosote built up but that's like sticky black concrete...
The troll is fed. So, I figured I may as well contribute. No offense, but some of you (and a few overzealous lawyers) are the reasons everything comes with 500 warning labels. I may not be the smartest, but common sense sure has taken me far in life!
My only advice, if you blow your hand off, please don't sue the manufacturer of the ammunition, pyrotechnic or stove, lol.
