It ain't you Redsitck,,
To all,,
Alright guy's beat me up all ya need to.
I guess my point was,, that if someone "new" to flint-n-steel,, someone that hasn't had tutelage from another,, and they're just out there trying to figure it out,, all by themselves,, and they come here to this forum that does not offer easy access to "char cloth catching a spark" as part of it's forte.
Burning chucks of old clothes in a fire and hoping that they work well to "catch a spark" the olde timey way,
, doesn't work well.
Spudnut said he's got a bunch of old bluejeans he's gonna toss.
Well I don't toss my old bluejeans either,, I cut'm up then they become shop rags. They wipe grease from zerks and my hands,, then they're tossed.
If I am going to use fabric for char,, old clothes are not the best choice.
I'm sorry I caused so much trouble.
