Start a fire

by Nick
(Brighton,Ontario)

If you have a a cotton ball and a cigarette lighter it's easy to start a fire. Take the cotton ball in your hand and put the lighter so the metal part is in it. Press the button and the fluid while start to come out. Wait for 30 seconds.





Before doing that make sure you have a tipi made of small sticks and paper.

Now take the cotton ball and put it in the middle of the tipi and light it on fire and just stand back and watch.

good in theory but not in the cold, lighters usually have lighter fluide and it usually does not turn to gas in the cold, and gas ignites not fluide.
