My attempt at fire lighting
on: July 19, 2015, 05:53:20 PM
Well I got to the site of the UK meet on Friday morning not long after sparky and I busied my self with setting up the fire pit and getting it going. Paper, kindling, one baddest bee fire fuse and two swipes with the exotac nanostriker XL got it going.



The same fire, with no relighting was still going strong this morning as we were packing up.

Yeah, the one we put half a tree on and overloaded so I had to stop up while gone 5am then doze outside on the ground nearby in the rain, so it didn't spread to areas it shouldn't, while you courageously went to bed  :pok: :D :D
