simple and effective fire kits.

Road flares and diesel works best for me. Or a pair of exam gloves and mag. bar.

fresnel lens is all you need. just maintain a good firebox & you're set till you die of old age.

I am sorry I should have explained it.


I use a double boiler and melt the paraffin wax. I then place the jute twine in and swish it around until its good and soaked. I pull it out and let it dry. VIOLA! Its still plyable and will act as cordage if you need it too.


No. Dryer lint just acts like cotton candy. it hardens up and wont burn. Use cotton balls or mop strands. ( the real industrial style mops with the raggedy Ann style hair.)

Great idea. I will have to try that myself.
