Happy Memorial Day to you as well Bob. :-)

The weed burner is a propane torch with a long handle. I have this one.
The Bernzomatic:

Stick the end in the wood pit once it's loaded, light it and away you
go! Much better than screwing around with newspaper and a standard
lighter. :-)

The propane tank screws on to the handle.

I use it for burning weeds in the driveway.
