When we had a wood burning furnace,the method I used was to cut small twigs.and other small pieces of wood,then place them into a gallon emptied paint bucket of kerosene.The wood soaks up the kerosene and makes for quick fire starters.these were kept under a larger bucket to keep the odor down,but as they were just outside my back door of my walk-out basement ,there was never any problem in that department anyway.

I save all my dryer lint all winter long in a plastic bag in my laundry room. I also save empty paper towel rolls(which I cut in half) and toilet paper rolls. Stuff these with the lint, use to start fires in the fire pit. Wax not needed. But now, I will save my candle stubs to and an egg carton or two as well.

Seems like a wonderful resource-conserving thing to do HOWEVER- so many of our synthetic clothing materials shed fibers when we do laundry- especially polyester- not only do these microplastics pollute the ground-water and/or end up in the ocean, but lots end up in the dryer lint. Not good to breathe lint dust or burn it either. Sorry for the news. Modern life is complicated these days. Love the egg carton/wax part!
