Make One Yourself
Making a chimney starter with a grate and handle made out of coathanger wire is one approach, but a simpler method is to remove both ends of a large can (#10 food can or large Coffee can) and then to place the resulting cylinder on top of several charcoal briquettes. The briquette spacers allow air to enter the can at the bottom. To use, individually crumple up 3 sheets of newspaper and place a modest load (24) of briquettes on top of the newspaper. Light the newspaper from space between the spacing briquettes. Tongs or some other method of removing the hot can is necessary after the charcoal starts.

Famous quotes containing the words one and/or yourself:

Time’s course to slower speeding,
When one by one our friends have gone
And left our bosoms bleeding?”
