DIY do-it-yourself pocket set

Greetings to all readers and do-it-yourselfers. Going on a camping trip or fishing with an overnight stay, we have to make a bonfire to cook dinner or just to warm ourselves up. For ignition, we usually use matches or a lighter, but at the crucial moment they can fail - the matches can become damp, and gas can run out in the lighter or flint will pop out. In order not to be left without fire, the author suggests acquiring, as an alternative, a pocket set for ignition, which can be made do it yourself.

Tools and materials:


• Aluminum rod.
• Aluminum tube.
• Wooden plug.
• Cotton fabric.
• Rubber o-ring.
• Engine oil.
• Epoxy two-component adhesive.
• File.
• Sandpaper.
• The file.
• Drill.
• Gas-burner.






Step 1


First, the author cut the aluminum tube to a size of 75 mm, and the rod to a size of 90 mm. An important point, the rod must enter the pipe freely. Next, you need to file the edges of the aluminum tube and the end of the bar with a file and sandpaper. The author then drowned the pipe on one side using epoxy glue and a wooden cork.








Step 2


Now you need to prepare the piston. To do this, the author clamps the rod in a vice and drills a blind hole in it with a depth of about 10-12 mm with a drill with a diameter of 4.5 mm. Then, on the same side, holding the rod in the drill chuck, files a groove on which the sealing ring will be installed.






Step 3


Then the author prepared a charred cloth. To do this, he cut it into small pieces and put it in a metal box, in the lid of which he made a hole. He heated the box with a gas burner, when a flame appeared from the hole, closed it.





Further, the author made a spatula, which will put the fabric into the hole on the piston.

Step 5


It's time to test the device. On the piston, in the groove, the author fixed the o-ring and greased it with oil. Further, a piece of charred rags was laid in the bore of the piston. I inserted the piston into the cylinder and sharply pressed it.Pulling out the piston, we see that the rags caught fire. To understand how it works, watch the video below.







Step 6


After the author conducted the tests and made sure that everything works, he picked up a case for storing the kit. It must be durable, airtight and compact.


Thank you all for your attention and see you soon.

My father told stories how tanks were inflated with this method. They drained the tank, poured some gasoline, literally something would have a mixture of vapors, and threw a match. Sometimes it inflated, sometimes it vomited the tank. This is the story, I myself will never deal with such nonsense, spoil my hedgehog ...

This lover in Java simply did not create the ratio of fuel and oxidizer. Otherwise, it would be like a rocket and rise into the stratosphere, without returning to Earth xaxa

Then just to the right. It was there that one amateur sat to shine on his "Java".))) Motorcycle gas tank, if full - only a little audible "puffs". If half empty - already a good thump, and the hair oiled with eyelashes! Blowing it up, even empty one, is difficult - too little air is placed and too narrow a neck - burning will not be supported, only that which has enough air inside will burn.

In the days of "motorcycle youth" twice really observed such a case!)))) Fortunately, both times the tanks were almost full!
There is no fuel gauge on the motorcycle! So drop in! And, on the machine, without thinking, shine if it's dark!))))
One of these cases is generally funny. Sat in the crowd in the evening on motorcycles. We thought where to go.)))). One says, “Will we go to Kamenetz? (About 50 km). Does everyone have gasoline? ... Only they don’t have light ....." .... I didn’t finish it ... A bright flash on the right.))) ))...Laughter!...

It does not shine at all.
Apparently the Chinese have a different opinion, although it depends on what it burns! In the neck of the gas tank at the gas station to highlight its light is enough!
Lighter flame temperature: 1300 degrees Celsius

put in it "hunting matches", "dry alcohol" and a gas lighter
Gas turbo lighter-burner. used for any purpose: for igniting a fireplace, barbecue, also for soldering, repair, lighting, heating, igniting firewood and much more. The lighter is NOT disposable; it can be refilled with a gas can. There is also a lock to prevent accidental pressing. 250 ₽

About the "eternal match." Homemade clarifies the law (PV) / T = const. However, it’s easier to take a box, put in it “hunting matches”, “dry alcohol” and a gas lighter.

FIRE WITHOUT MATCHES and WATER FILTER: ADDED: Dig a groove into it, put a straight dry stick, put 2 sticks from above across the stick at a distance of 10-15 cm. On the upper sticks from the center, from the bottom, small indentations are made to which the lower will be pressed stick. Above the crosshairs of the lower stick with the upper one, apply combustible dry material. STAND ON UPPER STICKS WITH FEET TO PRESS TO EARTH, Pull a rope or rag under the lower stick, you can scarf or belt. Holding the ends of the rope with your hands, pull it, pressing the lower stick to the upper ones and quickly moving your hands up and down to twist the lower stick, the smoke will go almost instantly, and your friend will blow the fire! Snake venom can be sucked off by previously chewing activated carbon or charcoal from a fire and spitting! Water filter: Two plastic corks are glued with hot glue, you can fold two corks and stick them together with a heated nail. Then make a hole in them mm 6. then they wind up on a bottle for water, another bottle, cut off like a funnel, is wound on top. Foam or cotton wool, moss or fabric are placed in the funnels, disheveled bird cherry branches are placed on it, not a lot of it kills microbes. All this is covered with coal from a fire. Cover with a cloth from above, Secure with a rope and make a funnel in it. and you can filter the water. But be sure to boil! If 10 cm of reflective eyes are sewn on the back, then the beast from the back will not attack if you make eyes on your backpack and put it in front of you, then there will be two of you for the beast, it’s easier to backtrack by leaving the backpack! Having ammonia with you. Before the bear’s attack, Wet his left hand and set the beast to meet. Spray on the beast, you can miss! Eyes can be painted with charcoal! Trousers and shoes rub with ashes from ticks. The metal canister with water can be heated at the stake and used as a heating pad for the tent. If winter parking is fenced with red flags, then wolves will not fit!

The idea is a class, a description of the norms, the performance is good, but ..... the idea is suitable for students to show the compression and ignition systems in the internal combustion engine, specifically in a diesel engine, but in the taiga or camping trip as a means of ignition, it is too complicated.
