| Fire starters, such as the Aurora Magnesium Fire Starter, are an important and basic essential of any outdoor/survival pack. Fire starting is one of the first things to consider in a survival situation. Remember your Rule of Three’s. You can live three minutes without air, three hours without shelter and fire in a harsh environment, three days without water and three weeks without food. Fire starting can be the answer between life and death. Warmth and shelter are just about the first things to remember in a survival situation. Having several methods of fire starting with you at all times is a good start at preparedness. It is also important to have some good tinder. A great project for the budding outdoorsman is making your own tinder. Try the cotton ball and Vaseline tinder method. Just get a cotton ball and some Vaseline. Get the Vaseline throughout the cotton ball, but don't oversoak it so it's too wet with Vaseline. You'll need to pull the cotton ball apart a bit to expose the individual threads and throw a spark from you new fire starter. You'll be amazed at how quickly it catches fire and how long and hot it burns. This is a great project for scout troops as well. |
