Sap Fire Starter
in this instructible I will show you how to make a fire starter out of pine tree sap and charcoal
things you will need:
pine tree sap
toilet or paper towel roll
painters tape
matches
and charcoal
Find a Contanier
find a container to put the charcoal in
Get the Charcoal
get the charcoal or lump wood coal and put it in the container
Crush the Coal
crush the charcoal into as much powder you can get the more powdery it is the better it will burn
Boil the Sap
boil the sap until its the consistency of syrup but be careful it is very flammable because of the turpentine becoming a mist
Mixing
mix the crushed coal with the sap while its boiling but be careful it is very flammable
Mix the Coal and Sap
mix the coal and sap until it is thoroughly blended and to make sure the mix is good you can take a sample and light it on fire and see how long it burns
BE CAREFUL
be careful because it is very flammable because the sap is filled with turpentine
Make the Roll
once the mix is done quickly get a toilet paper roll and pour it in you have to be quick because as soon as the sap is off the eye it will quickly start to cool, once it is in let it cool for one minute then get a couple of matches and place it in the sap, some paper towel will also do well as a wick
