Abstract
A self-contained package of tinder, wood splinters, small wood, and kindling are arranged in a manner to ignite easily and burn to produce wood coals. A
perforated box is used to contain the combustibles for market .The said box is also used to stabilize the contained elements until the fire is sufficiently established to be self-sustaining. Within said box, wood elements are arranged in a manner to allow draft to circulate through the material in order to foster flame. Tinder such as plane spills, woodshop shavings, and wood splinters are used on the bottom level. The second level is to be small wood boards, 5mm-10mm thick, with air spaces in between, which are to be supported above the tinder, and be ignited by the tinder. The third level is to be thicker boards, 10mm-20mm thick, with air spaces in between, which rest upon the second level. The fourth level is to be a small piece of kindling resting upon the third level. A match or the like inserted into a lower hole ignites the package to produce a fire and coals ready to ignite a piece of firewood.

Description
Description Field of Invention This invention is designed to simplify the starting of a wood fire. It is intended for use with a woodstove, fireplace, wood oven, campfire or anywhere a wood fire is required.
Background of invention Many woodstoves, fireplaces and wood ovens go unused due to the fact that the owner simply does not have the proper tinder or small wood on hand to start a fire.
Most people no longer carry a tinderbox. It is also time consuming to arrange the combustibles correctly so as not to smother a fire before sufficient coals are established to ignite a regular piece of firewood.
When trying to start a campfire, it is common for some campers to start a fire using a flammable explosive such as gasoline. This is unsafe and can cause the fire to spread from gasoline spilled. There is also the danger of the gasoline container catching fire or exploding.
Although most people planning on building a fire will gather or purchase firewood, kindling and tinder is planned for to a lesser extent. Splitting a piece of firewood into kindling with a hatchet often requires the hatchet wielder's fingers to be dangerously close to the striking hatchet. Old newsprint is generally used as tinder and usually burns too quickly and does not ignite the kindling.
The novelty of this invention is that all natural elements are supplied, pre-arranged and secured where it is necessary in a way as to save the end user time and allow those unskilled in fire making to start a natural fire easily and quickly.
Summary of invention This invention is to be available both without a top (see diagram)and with a top (see diagram].
For people who make a fire regularly, as with a wood stove or a fireplace, the inventor intends to market a "multi-pack" which will consist of a more than one unit.
These units will not have a top for 2 reasons as shown below:
1- To reduce cost.

2- Not putting a top on the units in the " multi-pack" is also for ease of stacking and packing.
This invention is also available with a top and a handle as shown in diagram and as described below.
Detailed Description A cardboard, paper or vegetable fiber box, which contains tinder, wood splinters, small wood, and kindling. Said tinder, wood splinters, small wood, and kindling are arranged in a manner to ignite easily and burn to produce wood coals. This invention does not contain sufficient firewood to create a fire of any substance and if not fed further firewood will burn out in a short time.
1. Cardboard, paper or vegetable fiber box is a box with a bottom, a top and four sides. The box is used to contain elements within.
The box is also used to stabilize the elements within so they don't move around during travel. To stop the contained elements from moving around, the box may have indents pressed into it to hold the contained elements in place.
The box will be perforated, as by die cutting, to control airflow into the box. The perforations will allow sufficient air to foster flame with the balance of the box protecting the flame if there is wind.
2. Within the box, wood will be used as a fuel. The wood will be arranged in levels.
The first or lowest level will contain tinder. Tinder will be comprised of any or all of the following products. Plane spills, woodshop shavings, twigs or wood splinters.
The second level is to be small wood boards, 5mm-10mm thick. They are arranged with air spaces for smoke and air to circulate upward.
The third level is to be thicker boards, 10mm-20mm thick. These boards will rest upon the second level.
The fourth level is to be a small piece of kindling resting upon the third level.
This invention is also available with a top and a handle as shown in diagram and as described below.

The fourth level is to be a small piece of kindling resting upon the third level.
3. A match or the like inserted into a lower hole ignites the tinder on the first level.
The flame then rises to ignite the next level and then the subsequent levels until the piece of kindling on the top level and the entire box is aflame. This small fire will ignite firewood.
The flame then rises to ignite the next level and then the subsequent levels until the piece of kindling on the top level and the entire box is aflame. This small fire will ignite firewood.
Claims (6)
Exclusive property or privilege is claimed, defined as follows:
1. A box containing dry natural wood of different sizes, pre-arranged and secured in levels to easily start a fire long enough to create coals to ignite an average piece of firewood. The claimant claims the design of this product to have any amount of layers stacked in the box or bag. It is described below in 4 layer design.
2. Box referred to in #1 is a cardboard, paper or vegetable fiber box or bag, perforated sufficiently to allow sufficient oxygen to fuel a fire.
3. For the purpose of the word "dry" referred to in #1 is to have a moisture content of less than ten percent humidity.
4. Natural wood of different sizes referred to in #1, is to mean any combination of plane spills, woodshop shavings, twigs, wood splinters or any wood product as tinder. The second level is to be small wood boards, 5mm-10mm thick. The third level is to be thicker boards, 10mm-20mm thick. The fourth or top layer is to be a piece of kindling. All wood products are to be cut to length to fit in the box.
5. For the term secured referred to in#1, the wood products are to be either glued or fastened into indentations in the box. Such measures are taken to hold everything in place for shipping.
6. An average piece of firewood referred to in #1, is to mean a common piece of split firewood as used in a woodstove or fireplace (10"-20" long by 4"-8" round).
