We tried using a fire log which should be easy as can light the wrapping but in practice it didn't work at all.

You could try kiln dried logs.

Kiln dried logs produce much less smoke and sparks. Had fire pit on in garden few nights ago and experimented with air dried seasoned logs vs kiln dried. Much more pleasurable with kiln dried and they burn that wee but longer .

I stayed at Cedris farm last year,they were using old washing machine drums as fire pits,with the pulley wheel still attached as the foot,being stainless steel they never burn out,also plenty of holes to let air through

). Can I use it as a fire pit in the evening and if so is there anyway to reduce the sparks etc. from the burning coals? Would hate to set fire to a tent - ours or someone else's!!.
