My tip is to put matches head down, that way damp fingers wont make them wet, learned that the hard way after dunking through the ice, being that cold fine motor skills are gone so picking just one match is nearly superhuman feat, managed to get half of the matches damp before one worked. also I dunk stack of cotton makeup pads in molten candlewax, let them soak and squee them out forming waterproof firestarters that can be started with a ferrocerium rod if you "fluff it up" first.

Great idea, I use a similar kit when I camp, but can I add one thing. After wrapping the electrical tape to the end, you could continue to wrap the rest of the tape to an amount you are happy with. Essentially you are putting a roll of electrical tape on the end of your match kit. The tape is designed to stick to itself for a longtime without any ill effects. So when you need some, which you will, it’s there for you to use. Ask any electrician, the best waterproof bandaid is paper towel wrapped with electrical tape. I fixes any holes in a tent, or coat. You could wrap a bit of the electrical tape to a twig and when lit, the twig will stay lit for a long time. Like duct tape, it’s great for almost anything, except ducts. Also, I would use Hurricane Matches. They won’t blow out easily. One of those trick birthday candles are a good idea. The ones that won’t blow out. I bring those every time I go camping. When camping in the wilderness, I always wrap Duct tape on to itself over and over itself anywhere I can so I always have a roll of Duct tape whenever in need. I remember one trip, while portaging in Algonquin Park, where my dad and I put a good size hole on the side of our cedar-strip canoe. It was all the way through and we were three days in. Thankfully Both of us had rolled duct tape on the middle of our paddles, that were were able to fix the hole. So well that we continued on with our trip as if nothing happened.

Just found you from the other side of the pond. Like your ideas. I am always surprized by the number of folks that go out with only a single lighter. Even though they are incredibly dependable, they do fail and usually when you are far from resupply. Nice little fire kit at is but I'm a bit suprized that you didn't have a fero rod in place of about half of the matches. In a budget kit I do suppose that you can buy a lot of matches for the cost of a fero rod. I'm dating myself now but I am still a fan of waxed paper as a no fuss, no muss fire starter. I know it isn't as ubiquitous as it once was but my wife still keeps some around. A couple of squares packed away can be very handy, when folded tightly you can get a small flame that lasts a couple of minutes or if crumpled loosely, a large flame but shortlived. Thanks for your tips and I look forward to discovering more.

Nick, can I make a couple of suggestions, I wonder. Get a 2l milk or juice container made of waxed cardboard - _not_ the ones with the shiny silver stuff on the inside. Plain waxed cardboard. Cut off the bottom and the top so you have an open-ended rectangle. Cut it open down the overlap. Mark it in half right down the long part. That gives you 2 strips each about 35cm long and 10.5cm wide. Cut them into one cm strips. You will have about 75 strips 1x10.5cm. Nick, it takes about _2 seconds_ with a lighter to get these things burning and each one burns for about 90 seconds. By the way, I always use a piezo lighter - the kind where you just press down because cold, possibly frozen fingers may find the roll-flick type difficult. These things are fairly wind resistant. And like I say, each box gives you a huge fistful. These things are also good for lighting gas cookers - with matches you need to light the match and then hold it while you pull the lever on the gas bottle. These things will save your lighter a _lot_ of wear and tear. Oh - and that overlap? Cut it off, it's double and burns even longer.

Had an idea regarding the strike surface as well upon a rewatch, roll the strikepaper around the collar face out and trim to size. Make cuts 1cm in from the end halfway through the paper on OPPOSITE sides. Use those slots to interlink and make a ring, strike surface outwards. Tape to secure and keep it inside the collar. When using simply slide it on a finger like a ring and strike with other hand. Will do a vid later on it but need to buy matches first lol.

Can I point out that the shopping basket pot stand, should only be made from basket found on a waste tip, or similar and not “liberated from the local supermarket “. I would also caution against using wax to waterproof matches if they are the type that requires the striker panel from the box, as the wax can clog the panel leaving you struggling to ignite your “dry matches “, far better to search for the strike anywhere type of matches and waterproof them. In addition the strike anywhere matches can be struck on the metal zipper of your coat or trousers even when all other available striking surfaces are wetter than a damp dog.

Personally, I keep both in my kits... the tool I referenced is counting the matches needed to start a sustainable fire with the goal to get down to a "one match fire". I would utilize the silica balls. (don't they absorb O2?) as far as the striker goes, I face them to the outside of the container they are in so they don't accidentally scratch a match on fire. (probability an unnecessary fear. lol ) I love the idea of using the long matches too... very good info.

Btw: I have these cillinders too, but they are vintage and made out of aluminium. The 'sugarpot'lid, why not punch a small hole in it to let the pressure off?

Interested as to why you chose electrical insulation tape to go around the outside of the tube instead of the possibly more multipurpose ‘duct’/gaffa tape (gorilla brand is popular)? Since not only is it a good strong multipurpose tape, but it (at least gorilla brand) burns very well like rubber too. Not sure if there is a high visibility, strong, well burning duct tape? But if not I guess you could use a bit of both anyway 🤷🏻♂️

Get a piece of string or paracord, tie a couple of knots on top of one another. When you gather the matches together have the knot on the bottom with the lose string coming up through the matches. Little pull on the string would free the tightly packed matches. Stretch a length of racing bike inner tube over the length of the tube; say 700x23. Would give you far more inner tube.
