Wax & Lint
Great fire starters start with wax and dryer lint. Start with dryer lint, wax and small bathroom paper cups. I melt wax and fill the Dixie cups with dryer lint (full) and add the wax. Let each set until firm (sometimes I put in the freezer to speed up the process). These work everytime, and we always have spares for our camping neighbors who have a hard time lighting their campfires.
