From Part 1: The rope project definitely works. I forgot to grab any tinder material and just kept blowing on the charred rope in the lid of the tin and it lasted for a good five minutes. Great idea. Had to order in the 100% cotton rope from Rope Galore.See pics below. The tin became that hot I couldn’t lift it up to arrange the char for the pictures.
