From opening the box, they seem bigger than average which is great so you only need one or two to start a fire. A stylish way to organise your fireside or mantelpiece, our Firelighter Box is a must have for the winter months. This project shows you how to make twenty lightweight homemade firelighters using wood wool, beeswax, and cooking oil. The overall design means that all the bolt heads can be seen which is not too much of a problem, except for the ones on the base which press into the floor. Three individually bagged bricks, and a lighter fit nicely in a take-away tub, and seal in any fuel vapors nicely.

Instead, this is a practical and straightforward idea for people who want to make no-nonsense homemade firestarters that actually work.

The twisting of the wood wool into a coil in the instructions below gives you fairly solid firestarters with a prolonged burn time.

A question came up about dousing the EverFire bricks, should the need arise, and what happens if they get wet or are submerged/dropped in water? This set features a poker, tongs, a shovel and a brush which is all supported by an elegant stand with an attractive Fleur De Lys detail. Cooling the bricks reduces the thermal shock they experience when dropping into fuel, thus reducing the risk of cracking and becoming less effective. The Tidy is a useful size that can also be used for storing other items such as cloths, matches and lighters. The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings.I found that a single EverFire brick, soaked with methylated spirits was not only hot enough and long lasting a burn enough to send my Fire Box stove red hot but also boil enough water to make two cups of tea and toast some mini-hot-dogs, as well as starting a fire to make lunch on.
