This is exactly what I was looking for! Growing up my dad never taught me I feel like it's a basic thing to know but now doing it on my own my fires always die out and the logs I get never come with smaller pieces for kindling.
Wow with this cold snap we had a fire today too. Funny I use this method and my wife and son sit in front of the fire for fifteen minutes trying whatever way they do but then I get it done in 1 minute. Lol Thanks for watching
I only have small rounded logs. They are not cut in the center. I don't have a woodcutter and I'm also a woman so not going to bother with an axe or saw to split them...I dont have the strength right now. I do have trimmed branches as well. Hoping it'll still work. Thanks for the vid!
Well, the dryer, the wood, the better but I have tried it with every form every species every dryness and it works so much better than just piling in a pile obviously and or in a TP I have not split kindling for years
It works every time. I wish my family would watch my videos. they sit in front of the fire for 20 minutes blowing and using tons of papers to no avail. oh well

I know it is so frustrating. Let me know how it works for you this winter. Thanks so much for watching. I hope that more of my videos can help you.
Thanks! Having not done it in so long I completely forgot how to do it. Going to try it now.

I was absolutely successful after watching your video!

Good tips. I'll give it a shot. Living in the burbs and don't have an axe and forgot to buy one. Not going back. Must have fire tonight! haha, Cheers

You’re welcome. I hope a few more of my videos can help you.
That wood is super dry. Perfect.
Yes you are correct. I had had this work on moderately dry as well. Thanks for watching. I hope a few more of my videos can help you as well.
Thanks for the upload. Time saving hacks are just what I want.
Especially this one it avoids the splinters and gets me warm more quickly it’s supposed to be in the negatives this weekend.
@@northwoodsdiscovery6962 ..yes! Eek!
Video is awesome and really works. Thanks!
Great. I am glad it helped
Thanks for watching.
Does the wood have to be kiln dried for this to work?
Well, the dryer, the wood, the better but I have tried it with every form every species every dryness and it works so much better than just piling in a pile obviously and or in a TP I have not split kindling for years
I am going to do this. Thank you.

dzieki mordo strzaleczka dla ciebie meczylem sie z kolega przy jebanym kominku 2 godziny a po zobaczeniu tego filmu odpalilismy to w 10 minut
its not working outside.
It should work anywhere. Is it windy? Is the wood wet? Make sure the thinnest edge of the top pieces are pointed down.
@@northwoodsdiscovery6962 it was windy and the wood was straight from the gas station. I used tonnes of cardboard
Wow. I can’t imagine
@@Shylock613That wood might have also been wet.
