here is my version of a small hand made tinderbox with candle holder. I beat it out of sheet copper and crudely soldered it together. not an exact copy of any originals i could find. i want something small for my fire bag. im thinking its better than the shoe polish can.

Here’s my fire kit the tin is from some type of candy mint it’s nice because it didn’t have any lettering on it so after a few rounds of char there is no evidence of it’s sordid past.
