what do you guys think about the design of this incinerator?

looks like easy to build.
never incinerated before, so after watching the vid i still can't tell if it performs well enough to worth the trouble building it (and buying a blower/vacuum).
if i vary the size of the 'chimney'/exhaust, how much is it going to influence the performance? bigger the better? if i can't find big hollow tube i can use multiple small one, right?
the blower i'm thinking about buying has a maxium output of 4700 liter per minute (78 liter per second), with adjustable output. overkill? can use em for my photography works after this project.
is it a good idea to inject fuel like kerosene or gasoline/petrol (via pressure difference, like in venturi tube or paint spray gun) into the flow of 'forced' air?
how bad of an idea is it to put the air jet inlet at the top of the drum? all furnace design i've seen put the inlet at the bottom. but working with a drum, having it at the top make it less cumbersome when trying to clear the ashes.
