How to Add Twigs to a Bonfire

All right, now that we've got our base of kenneling set here and our logs on either side, our base logs. What we want to do is then next we want to lay across our base logs our smaller twigs. So these are going to be anything from 1/8 of an inch to 1/4 of an inch. We want to lay this stuff, keep it long enough, you can kind of break them off, but we're going to lay those across our logs. And these again are going to be the smaller twigs and branches that you can get off of any dead trees or you know if you live close to a field and maybe you can go out there and you can grab some or maybe that's something you may have to purchase. But in our case we've got access, so this is what we are using, the small twigs and branches, and again 1/8 of an inch by a 1/4 of an inch, and we're just laying those across our base logs. And these are going to catch fire real nicely as you'll see when we get towards the end and it’s going to serve as a real nice base for us. You'll see in the next segment the size difference in the next twigs that we choose.
