  • the main housing structure is ignitable becoming inherently combustible as air is fed therein through the plurality of open apertures on the side or sides of the main housing structure whereupon burning of the main housing structure provides a non-toxic fire- lighting effect upon the kindle, wood, sticks and/or combustible lengths of nontoxic material that are at least generally vertically supported upon the upper edge of the main housing structure.
  • the main housing structure provides for a tetrahedral shape when the campfire is to be started.
  • the upper edge of the main housing structure includes an undulated profile, wherein a series of troughs or inverted peaks of said undulated profile of the upper edge of the main housing structure allow sections of said kindle, wood, sticks and/or combustible lengths of non-toxic material to be restable therein allowing the main housing structure to provide at least generally vertical support for the kindle, wood, sticks and/or combustible lengths of non-toxic material upon the upper edge of the main housing structure.
  • the robust non-toxic cellulose-based paper material is cardboard.
  • the main housing structure includes a series of folds, wherein said series of folds provides for a collapsible storage configuration of said main housing structure and an expanded open configuration of said main housing structure when the main housing structure is in the erected
  • two sides of the main housing structure are joinable together by a matching mating profile.
  • the main housing structure provides for a tetrahedral shape when in the expanded open configuration of said main housing structure when the main housing structure is in the erected configuration for use.
  • the main housing structure can be easily transported and sold in its collapsed configuration and as required expanded out easily into the erected configuration ready for use.
  • each flap is pre-cut flap into the main housing structure, wherein each pre-cut flap includes a single hinged side so as to allow the pre- cut flap to be pushable or pullable away from the side of the main housing structure to provide the corresponding open aperture.
  • the pre-cut flap is pushable from the side of the main housing structure internally into the main housing structure to provide the corresponding open aperture on the side of the main housing structure and wherein the pre-cut flap when pushed internally into the main housing structure provides an ignition point to be lightable internally within the erected
  • the pre-cut flap includes the hinged side, this means as the pre-cut flap is pushed from the side of the main housing structure internally within the main housing structure to provide the corresponding open aperture on the side of the main housing structure, the pre-cut flap is still retained with the main housing structure where it can be used as fuel for burning, and as an ignition point internally within the erected configuration of the main housing structure.
  • the open top section of the main housing structure when the main housing structure is in the expanded open configuration when in the erected configuration for use, allows small pieces of kindle and/or non-toxic combustible material to be passable there through said open top section of the main housing structure into the hollow internal section of the main housing structure.
  • the main housing structure is coated with a non toxic coating to assist in the igniting of the main housing structure.
  • the non toxic coating is bees wax.
  • the main housing structure when in the expanded open configuration, provides for an appearance of walls of a house, and wherein said flaps configured into the side or sides of the main housing structure, provide for an appearance of a door and/or windows.
