  • Being able to start a fire in any conditions is a key element to survival. Preparing your fire kit ahead of time and carrying it with you makes this task so much easier. In this video, Hutch shows you how to make a super match, which is the combination of natural rope and wax. This long burning fire starter will help you get a fire going even when the natural tinder that you collect is damp and difficult to ignite. Check out this video to show you how it works and how to make it in your own home!

    if you just use cotton rope without the wax , you can pull the rope back in after it burns so that it creates char cloth for the next time you use it . even more durable that way

    I have used thicker cotton string to make mine and it work's great, it lights well with a spark and burns long and hot, and can be exstinguished in the pipe.

    I have been useing wax jute twine like yours years . Since it so cheap i cut them into 3 inch long and put them into a fire tin. I can light them with ferro rod ,dead bic, and solar if i have too. To me to save on bic or my matches. I just light the jute to get my twig bundle going if i have half of it left i blow it out and get one more fire out of it. Good vid there on how you fluff them up. I am lazy if i have to use a ferro rod to light it i cut the cord into 1/8 slices and rub with my fingers and it will fall apart into light fluff easy to take a spark and light the stick of jute.

    I noticed that the end that burned before, lites easily with a ferro rod. Even with stiff rope soked in beeswax. So once it has burned it is easy to re-ignite

    I make mine with hemp or sisal, 3/16" cordage soaked in a mi ture of wax and charcoal lighter fluid ànd either pieces of brass,or copper tubing or brake line.

    Hi Colorado Mountain Man Survival, I saw your YT channel on a mutual subscribe in Bushcraft survival and primitive skills I’ve just subbed to you now. Excellent fire lighting kit. Where in the world are you based? Have a great day and stay safe. James

      @@thesurvivaluniversity How stupid do I feel, now I've read your name again, of course you're in Colorado. I originally thought perhaps it was just a name. Have a great day and stay safe. James
