How I Make a Campfire

This is my take on an easy way to have a great campfire

I build my fires with homemade egg carton fire starter(lot of great instructables on that) I use pet bedding shavings to make mine, they work great.

I place to small diameter logs about 10 inches apart and place the fire starter in the middle

Place 2 x 4's that are about 12 inches long or any other milled lumber is great for kindling; stack on top of small logs. I usually split the 2 x 4s making them 2 x 2, they catch fire quicker.

Now light the fire starter and arrange the milled wood (2 x 4s or  2 x 2) above the flame so as not to smother the flames

As the fire continues to grow add larger logs and get ready to make s'mores.
