doo·hick·eyJan 24 21: 09:22pmI used a hatchet to do about a 3rd of it. Not uniform and stuck pieces in a mini kettle. Might last all winter!
doo·hick·eyJan 24 21: 09:19pmholeinbow, I did what you said with the firelog, hard to light yep. I grabbed the propane torch AND figured out the saved wrapper holding rest of log got it going too. $3.99 at DIY.
Polar 🌌rbitJan 24 21: 07:23pmTakes two sheets of the grizzly to light the fire.
Polar 🌌rbitJan 24 21: 07:19pmI have a friend of a friend with a wholesale lumber business. I can get a lot of cutoff pieces 8 to 14 inches long from 2x4 to 4x8. If there are no knots, I split the good stuff into matchsticks for kindling, matchsticks being 1/4 to 3/8 cross section. The kindling cracker is awesome. [Click Here]
holeinbowJan 24 21: 06:28pmHmmm, sounds like itd take more than one grizzly, it seems to get skinnier all the time. I miss the big piles of la times that used to show up at the dumpsters...
JohnnyJan 24 21: 06:09pmHey Jilly, we’ve had many a night when a tightly rolled, month old edition of The Grizzly and Burns~o~matic has done the trick!

holeinbowJan 24 21: 05:36pmHi jilly, i like to get one of those firelogs, warm it up to soften it and cut it into 2 inch cubes. Its a bit hard to light but once its going itll light a fire easily. I get thirty or forty chunks from one firelog and those thirty or forty lights cost no more than five bucks at the market or seven or eight at the liquor stores...
JillyJan 24 21: 04:33pmThanks for the recommendations everyone!
BootsNBridlesJan 24 21: 04:20pmJilly we use same as Benny. When we have nice dry pine it only takes 2 squares, but it starts full logs not kindling. Saves us a ton of time and headaches
furrymurry8114Jan 24 21: 03:59pmJilly. We've been using it for two years and love fatwood. We've used product by Plow&Hearth and Better Wood and have great success with both. Usually only need one or two sticks depending on the situation and wood.
Benny ⭐Jan 24 21: 03:56pmJilly, I use these, they're cheap and work great, I'll usually use like 3 blocks. Fire's light right up, as long as you keep your door cracked open. [Click Here]
JillyJan 24 21: 03:49pmFatwood...does anyone use it and if so what's your favorite brand? Had a sample that worked better than any other fireplace starter but there was no box to see the manufacturer.
