this is a kelly kettle,it works like a radiator,it is hollow in the middle,the water goes around the hollow,the kettle is placed over fire,the kettle protects the fire,and can be stoked up by putting more wood down the hollow,water is boiled in no time,the char cloth is made by cutting strips of cloth then putting them in a tin with one hole in the top over the fie,you know its ready when the smoke stops coming out,best tinder. The fire was lit using cotton wool a bit of vaseline,and a magnesium/swedish striker.
