Shredable and splitable wax accelerant impregnated fire tinder

Abstract

A fire starting implement in where the fuel source is an unadulterated piece Red Western Cedar Bark is impregnated with a secondary fuel source that acts as an accelerant. The combination of Red Western Cedar with Paraffin wax or other wax based accelerant creates a fire starter that is easily manipulated by hand or by tool. The final product can be split into smaller pieces or be pulled apart and shredded into finer strands. The fire starting implement created from this combination creates a highly weather resistant and versatile fire starter.

I claim: 
     
         1 . To impregnate the bark of the Red Western Cedar with a heated accelerant wax such as paraffin or beeswax which in turn after cooling the product, creates a weather resistant and easily manipulated fire starter that has the ability to split, shred, and be fluffed while maintaining it's high flammability and long burning nature. 
     
     
         2 . I claim the process of super heating paraffin wax to a high temperature in excess of it's normal low working temperature to acquire a viscosity that easily impregnates the cedar bark.
