make a cup out of your foil in the kit, put some water in it, and see if it holds water. Now, I know people will say of course it will. You have to try it. Because of how they have changed the manufacture of foil, when you compress the foil down like we have to to fit it in the kit, it will leak and not hold water. You can get around this by making a clay or wooden interior out in the bush, but just wanted to point out, modern foil will not hold water if it has been bent or folded.
hey i have a flint/steal thing mines a bit different and i was wondering , how cud i make 1 just like yours.. thats small and i cud easily make myself
well thats a good q ive had this for about a year now and it really lasts i never heard of herphilsons but its just flint its all the same i would sheck online for flint and steel or just the flint thats all you need because i use the back of my knife to strike the flint most of the time
@p52ntwrk hey mr dont mean to be rude or any thing i think u shud make the size of the tin bigger then you can fit more pins in and alot more extras ill subscribe i like it
there have been people posting vids of making charcloth on youtube i will post one once my camera gets back from repair in a couple days but basically put a cut up cotton t-shirt in a little altoids tin or something with only a little hole in it then heat it on a stove until it stops smoking ill make a vid for you
the safty pinns could be used for holding stuff togeather tell you can accualy sew it back to geather. the tin foil could be used for cooking fish or boiling water.
ye i guess so maybe like a makeshift fishing spear like to use it not as the tip but as a backward facing barb ha i never thought of that good idea man ty.
great tin! how did you jam all that stuff in the tin?! i have the same tin in my wallet and i can barely fit the stuff i have in it lol. the purification tablets that i have are individually wrapped so they fit easily
but trim the items down. also those items i show in the vid all fit pretty snug + 6purification tabs and i dont pack it all in the way it came out just make sure not to damage the foil put sumthing between it like cotton.
If i sew myself up with a magnetized needle with i always find north? lol good vid!

that's really neat... can't believe you fit all that in one altoids tin... and when i read the description i thought you meant a larger altoids tin

this kit is not lacking at all on fire methods. its good for ensuring fire. it also has some good fishing equipment.
oh and i wouldent add the water purification the tin foil dose just that. fashion it into a pot put water in and boil it.
but it is still nice to have the water purification should the tin foil be made unusable.

If you had to sew yourself up would the lead(if it's made of lead) weights rubbing against the fishing line be dangerous to your skin?

are lead weights even legal?

If you had to sew yourself up in a emergency/survival situation, the last thing you should be worried about is a little lead on a fishing line.

Glad to hear you put purification tabs in too.

what can you do with safety pines?
thenatester57 3 years ago
sorry for late post but ye safety pins can be used for fish hooks, repair straps, close holes in clothing, and pin things together.
im sure there are many more uses on a realistic note i used them last month to fix a backpack strap until i had time at night to stitch it properly.
