Thinking of becoming an arsonist Colin?
Nice job on them
He always had a good fire going at the moot so he wouldn't need much practice!

Funny funny.
I hope to sell a few and use some as gifts. The next lot will be various hard woods.
Very cool! 
I'm about to buy some exotics woods for a work-related project and I expect to have some small offcuts that usually I'd throw in the log burner... if you PM me where to send them, I'll save them, package them up and they should be the ideal size for what you're doing. They'll have rough edges as they're being cut on the bandsaw, but easy enough to sand and polish into shape.
Offers there if you want it.

I like the look of those Colin; very nice work indeed! I've not seen a ferro rod with a toggle on the lanyard before; do they serve any function other than decoration? (I'm not saying there's anything wrong in decoration of course!)
More for decoration Dave, but they do allow you to hang the rod from various items and pull it tight. (eg. belt, loop, pack strap.)
A random rod from the pack.
