Collect some tinder, which is light, small and flammable. This can come in the form oTinder may be a handful of pine needles or dried grasses, or even paper products. Make a "nest," or small pile, of the tinder in the center of your Axxonn Fire Pit, on top of the grate. This will allow the ash to fall through the grate and keep good airflow going through your fire. Keep some extra tinder available to add to the fire once it is lit.
Collect kindling, which is usually small sticks and twigs. These will burn longer than tinder, but will catch fire more easily than true fuel logs. Create a log cabin shape with the kindling around the nest of tinder. It should end up about 5 or 6 inches high.
Collect fuel logs. These should be about the thickness of your wrist, although they can be larger if they are very dry. Firewood can be purchased in bundles at markets or campgrounds, or you can collect your own. Do not add any fuel logs to your fire pit yet.
Light the tinder nest on fire with a lighter or a match. It may be easier to light a bundle of tinder and add it to the nest once it is lit. As the tinder nest burns, continue to add extra tinder until the kindling is definitely caught on fire. You can also add more kindling pieces to keep it going.
Add one or two small fuel logs across the top once your log cabin is burning well. You do not need to continue adding in a log cabin formation, but make sure you keep good air flow throughout your fire pit. As the fuel logs catch on fire, you can add more to create the fire size that you want.
