    Nice video but I would have liked to see the fire rage a little. I know that wasn’t your intent but keep the viewer in mind. Again, nice video.

    Thanks so much for this! I’ve always wanted to learn to build a campfire but the few things i’ve seen on it aren’t clearly taught. This IS! it has taken the mystery out of it, & made it look MUCH easier than the other things did! I’ve made notes from this & will try it asap. Thanks again.
