  • If you coat your cotton in Bag Balm instead of petrolium jelly. You have a first aid item and a fire starter in one.

  • its faster to make them if you heat the jelly to a liquid and did them it will re gel when it cools. also works rely well with dryer lint

  • real good dude but can i ask what a bugout bag is? is it simaler to a survival tin?

  • Blast match is nice but you still need good tinder. I prefer the magnesium that yo shave. I also shave some before I head out cuz shaving it is a bit of a pain. But it burns so ho that it gets even moist tinder going pretty good. Thanks for showing.

  • Hey, you should check out this thing called 'Swedish fire-steel'

    once you learn how to use it, it outputs small sparks around 400 degrees Fahrenheit
