this is the fire starter set up we go with, beside a couple packs of lighters. the string is cotton string dipped in parafin wax and dried. it doesnt take a spark well, but a little flame lights it and it stays burning for several minutes. comes in handy trying to have fire in a wet environment. estimate this jar good for about 100 fires.

ive been making char cloth using altoids tins too, but was thinking of using 2 flat pieces of heavy duty foil, put cotton cloth in the middle, seal all edges and burn the same way as usual. could make a lot more at one time if it works.

if you have kids at all interested in prepping try making a fire from one spark using ferro rod/charcloth or the battery/steel wool method. my kid had fun doin it, so did i
