Campfire Hack

Nothing says camping quite like a cozy gathering around a warm fire pit. If you are planning an outdoor trip this fall with family and friends, here is a quick tip for making things a little easier on you when building a campfire.

We all know campfires need oxygen. But fanning a flame with a paper plate or other handheld object takes too long. Enter the cordless power inflator tool. You may already have one to blow up your air mattress. Why not use it to fan the flame and really get it going? In no time at all, you will go from a smoldering pile of smoke to a warm fire for you and your companions to sit around at nighttime.

And one more thing: Make safety a priority and act responsibly when lighting and maintaining any campfire.
