    Anybody used this fire piston?

    We have several of these in our firecraft teaching boxes and we rate them very highly. Solid and well made, and providing the rubber piston ring is adjusted correctly to form an airtight seal and it is also greased they never fail to create an ember. Really good bit of kit. ATB, Phil.
