I have yet to get the magnesium to work. I make really fluffy kindle.
The idea is quite simple make a small pile of magnesium shavings and then use your knife to create a spark on the flint steel provided...it works like a hot dam...be careful!
I live in the rockies sometime shit is just to wet for a hot spot start. It snows too.
Hair works better. Alot of shit works better.
Forgive me but, you got a lot of camping over there.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 931387In wet conditions try to find small logs protected from the wet, and never what's on the ground, take dead wood from standing dead trees. Split the logs (into quarters is better) and take dry shavings from inside. Also, make sure you have a 'striker' that works. I thing stainless steel will not work. I'm gonna try hard steel like a hack saw blade. If it works it would be easy to make a small striker to carry
