    this method is good, but newspaper AND fire starting squares on top is basically cheating. that would work fine with any fire stacking method. Just use the upside down fire stacking method plus a small tipi fire on top. Once the kindling is going it will accomplish the same thing that the fire starter accomplishes, but for free instead.

      Glad to hear this as I was looking for a way around fire starters.

      Thanks! Fire starters are usually the last thing I grab, but I am looking forward to try it with a tipi on top.
