A.
Fatwood is a pine wood, approximately 8" in length (approximately
3/4" in diameter), which is hand-split from the stumps of pine
trees that contain a high concentration of natural resin. This organic,
100% natural resin allows the Fatwood to be started with a single
match and gives a sustained flame. Fatwood is used to start fireplaces,
pellet fuel stoves, barbecues, wood/coal stoves and campfires.
|
| Q. Is
our Fatwood from a rainforest and live trees? |
|
A.
We cut our Fatwood from non-rainforest areas and do not cut live trees.We
only cut wood from non-endangered pine species. We get our Fatwood
from forests which maintain sustainable yield forestry practices.
The trees are harvested for lumber, and our Fatwood is a by-product
of this process.
|
| Q.
What do the words Fatwood and Fatlighter mean? |
|
A.
Fatwood and Fatlighter are slang expressions which have been used
in the South for many, many years to describe the amount of pitch
(resin) in the pine wood. Fatwood/Fatlighter is the wood that is cut
from the base of the pine tree, which has captured the resin from
the trunk of the tree. Stumps that are left in the forest are cut
by hand with a saw and ax to produce Fatwood.
|
|
Q.
Do Fatwood sticks have any additive or chemical applied to the stick
to make it light?
|
|
A.
No. It is 100% natural, with no chemicals or additives of any kind
applied to the product.
|
| Q. How does the Fatwood compare to other
firestarters? |
|
A. Fatwood is probably one
of the very few, if not the only, 100% natural made firestarter.
Compare all the benefits of this product to liquid flammable firestarters,
wax parafins, flammable pressboard pieces, kerosene soaked products
and the inherent dangers they have.
|
| Q. What is the difference between kindling
and Fatwood? |
|
A. All Fatwood is kindling,
but not all kindling is Fatwood. Normally, hardwoods (such as
oak, hickory, etc.) rejected during the manufacturing process
are sold as kindling. Hardwood kindling does not start as quickly
or have a fire as intense as Fatwood, and it requires newspaper
or another additive to get started. While it appears that the
customer is getting more for the money with higher-volume kindling
bags, several pieces are needed to start each fire. Fatwood provides
a lower cost with just two sticks needed per fire.
|
| Q.What is the shelf life of Fatwood? |
|
A. Fatwood has an indefinite
shelf life. It is not affected at all by moisture. Fatwood sticks
can get wet and still be started with a match.
|
| Q. When should you plan to purchase
this product? |
|
A. Typically the date ranges
from September to February for the Fall and Winter and February
to March for the Spring and Summer seasons.
