Thanks to Tadpole's excellent tutorial i made my own charcloth. Used a lidded tin can and cotton dishcloths.
My mrs had a tin can that had a jamie oliver mug in it, also jamies picture on the can.
He just had to be burnt!
You can just see the smoke starting to wisp out.
I let it all cool down, opened up the tin and as you can see in the last pic, it worked!
Theres a bit in the center that did'nt quite burn, but the rest of its fine. I tried a bit of the cloth with a spark from a swedish firesteel and it took straight away. Well impressed!
Cheers Tadpole
