No Strike Anywhere Matches💥 in NZ 🌏 I want to try making my own. NZ has always been safety matches only. NICE! 2 IS 1 AND 1 IS NONE! good on you passing on credit to the founding idea chap. We all build on those who came before us and the cycle will continue. 🔥🔥🔥🏴🏴🏴💯💯💯😎🤘👏👏👏👏👏👏
I would say anyone should be able to get a fire going in just about any conditions with those matches, I really like adding the fat wood splits, that should help extend the burn time. All really cool hacks. Everyone should put together a good fire kit, but even more importantly get out and use it. Be safe, have fun and get good at making fires in different conditions using different materials and methods. Including myself.😅
You’ve got me thinking! I’ve seen the tape covered matches before, adding the Fatwood splinter is a novel idea. To be viable they have to be easy and quick to produce. I think I’ve come up with the perfect solution, been playing about with an idea. I will post a video with my take on the tape covered match, it’s definitely different, I’ve never seen it done.
I also make my own survival matches. I wrap the match with cotton twine(leaving the head out) and then I soak it in wax. If I want to add an extra, before wrapping it, soak the match in wax and sprinkle it with magnesium shaving, then wrap and soak again!
I’m just waiting for some materials I’ve ordered and I’ve got some top quality matches coming off Etsy. I’ve made a jig to make these matches, I should be able to churn them out 100’s at a time. The time consuming part is the tape, I think I have overcome that problem.
If you use your idea and tape a "Can't blow it out" birthday candle to the waterproof safety match, it's going to burn and wind can't blow it out. Peace Ps A piece of metal oxide sandpaper won't be affected by wet like a striker pad.
@@RobEvansWoodsman Just thought of an option that I need to try, make scrapings from a cheap magnesium bar onto the duct tape before wrapping around match bundle. Hmmm
I don't understand why people like Gorilla tape at all. Its fabric is too thick and strong for the glue - it will peel away at the ends more easily than cheapo tape. Dollar store tape that's thinner and stickier wrapped twice as many times, is way better for my modeling projects..and less expensive.
