My old dustbin-style incinerator has disintegrated after about 2 years' use. But how to protect the inside of a new one to make it last longer? All I can think of is a round piece of sheet metal inside, to protect the bottom. What about the sides? Anyone any bright ideas?

Try and find an old 200 litre open topped drum, they will last a lot longer, maybe at a scrap metal yard or an engineering works. Some years back we burnt waste wood and paper daily at a factory and the drum would last for years.
Been gardening for over 65 years and still learning.

Trouble is our council has banned fires on allotments with an incinerator I get away with it but a large drum might cause me problems but you are right Burnie they work well and last for years
