My controlled burns have not been that controlled and have involved the local rural volunteer fire department, station is three miles from my site. The best burn was when they were on the scene before lighting up. Some burns have scared everything out of me and it is not a good feeling. I feel very lucky because the biggest loss so far was a fence post. My intention with the equipment proposed is to lay down two wet lines a rod or two apart around the parameters, following and controlling the fire between the lines. After that is done lighting the remaining area. As stated in one of the responses the important thing then is having ideal weather conditions. We have used an LP torch or drip ignition (gas diesel mix). Drip is the way to go. Thank you for your responses. CAUTION can not be over stated.
