Fire Starter
Color of the day: Silver Incense of the day: Rosemary Visit your local outdoor recreation store and purchase a two-piece fire-starter set. One piece is held steady while the other (the "striker") is struck sharply against the stable piece, creating sparks. The sparks then fall onto some sort of highly combustible material and voilà-fire! Most fire starters are the traditional flint and steel. Some replace the flint component with magnesium, which yields extra-hot sparks. Practice (outdoors!) until you can create a reliable shower of sparks. Then create a pile of quick-start material to catch the sparks: fatwood shavings, shreds of newspaper, or laundry lint (from your dryer) work very well. Rehearse until you can light fire with one strike. For effect, say as you strike: Prometheus, gift us with fire! |
