Just made some char cloth ... on an indoor fire.
What i did was get an old army fuse tin and knock a small hole in the screw lid. Got some cotton and cut it into 3 - 4 inch squares and stuffed the tin.
Then I placed it upright in the fire and waited for the smoke being produced to die down (took about 10 - 15 mins in all). Popped a small stick in the hole at the top and let it cool. Opened it up to find a nice batch of char cloth!
Nice to have something to do by the fire!
