well, it depends on the type of wood. how much. when. and where.
i find the wood in the sand dunes is the best and at about 5 to 10 lbs of logs and wood it should last about an hour. i would start by digging a pit and lining it with seaweed. than get beach grass and crumple it up. leave enough ear in there cause fires need oxy. than get tiny twigs and put it on top. get slightly larger twigs and put them on. once your at about 5-7 in sticks just throw sticks that size on. keep going untill you have a fire about oh say two feet high. than you can put a DRY beach log on the side and once thats burning put the others.
happy fire fun~
