The weather was beautiful in northern Michigan over the past week. While enjoying the evening coolness our neighbor  supplied us with a Swedish fire. I had never heard of this before. He took a log about 18 inches high and 10 inches in diameter and with a chain saw cut four slices creating 8 wedges. The cuts went down about 15 inches leaving the bottom intact. You use about 1/4 cup of gas to pour down the center and (carefully) light it. It provided an amazing fire that burned for three hours.
