The stone is called in English either "Flint" or "Chert"- I've got a whole driveway full of it, as it's quite the naturally occurring rock here in Arkansas. Thank you for this video- so the wife is keeping all the "Altoids" cans we've got
What I would love to see.. "Hey everybody, welcome to my laboratory where safety is #1 priority." Then proceeds to poke his eye with his glasses when putting them on.
I don't think that is true at all. It would take the same amount of time. The holes where the hinges are are plenty big enough to let the gases escape.
If you use methanol in your little stove there the flame will be blue and you won't have that messy black all over your Altoids tin. Makes it easier to re-use. Look for a product called Heet: it's a gasoline anti-freeze. It's 100% methanol.
Thanks for the great video! I use char cloth to light my pipe tobacco so it doesn't taste like lighter fluid, works great! The fire starter stone that is generally used (the one you have also) is a stone called "Flint". Thanks again!
One thing's for sure, crazy russian hacker will get kicked out of the plane if he'll decide to make a video there. He'll just keep saying "Boom" until he gets tazed XD
Got to give it to you! That is a GREAT survival technique! And for all your friends across this great country and the WORLD who live in areas that do not have Flint Rock to strike the steel object on, you have a ready-made business to sell a small piece through the mail or even on E-Bay! Good luck on your new Business, you CRAZY RUSSIAN!
Before the fire department comes, I ordered some tins and other bushcrafting items (an axe and huge ferro rods lol) from Amazon and will begin testing in my back yard. Thanks for the vids!
+jonathan wu ,, It's what we call PREPERATION. Get an altoids can, enjoy the mints, then save the can to store your char cloth in. It's the perfect size for a bugout, or survivalist bag. The cloth starts very easily with a Farrell rod, one strike and the char cloth will catch!!
NightSky777 get a can of coke cut the bottom then another can cut the bottom and put them together make holes make sure you have gas in the bottom one and boom
Material is Flint my friend. Ferrocerium/magnesium rod's do a better job creating sparks i think. And are very inexpensive. You also get incredibly more use from them, weight for weight. 👍✌️👌
guys im rusian also and i have acent olso so i dont insalting him but becuse of his accent i didnt understend what cloth he used and i thought he sayed hampersent cloth and i dont what it is so if some one can tell me what it is
+IKKOSAQ Char coal is made of wood. Char cloth is made of cloth. Charred materials are made by heating something to burning temperature without lighting it up. That is usually done by sealing it off from fresh oxygen supply. Like put the stuff in a metal box and put it in the fire ;)
I think he goes camping alot. So while these things can apply to survival situations they are also really nifty for when your camping and say you lose your lighter. By having a backup plan like this you won't be freezing your but off or eating cold food.
The method you’re using is called Flint and Steele the stone you’re using is very hard and it shaving very small metal pieces off of your steel which is causing the sparks like your char cloth.
