I gotta try the Wax Wood Sticks! I think that will be a winner for me. My DIY firestarters are Petroleum Jelly and cotton Makeup Rounds I put in old Skoal containers. I melt the PJ and dip the rounds half way. They give me 7-12 minutes of good flame.

The best fire starter when you have to get something going and you don't have time to play around is a road flare. Pull it out, strike it and put it under your wood pile. It burns for about 10 to 15 min and you will have a rip roaring fire by the time it goes out.

It's also nice to see what's out there to have on hand when your in a hurry. If you have never been in a situation where there is no tinder because of weather or there simply are no resources available, I would say you lack experience or just haven't been out enough. These are valuable and worth taking a look at. Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
