I've been heating my home with a wood-stove for as long as I've been a homeowner, and over the years my method of lighting fires has evolved. The goal has always been less work and better results. In this video I explain why I stopped splitting kindling years ago, and how I set up all my fires all the time quickly, easily, and without the need to split any kindling at all. The secret was right in font of me all the time!
