wanted iron pyrites

[g4ghb]

Does anoyone have a source of Iron Pyrites suitable for 'sparking' to create fire and would be willing to send me a bit (i'm happy to pay postage or send something in return of course)

I fancy having a go at making fire 'primativly' - ie strikeing it against some flint (ok, I admit it! - i've been watching Ray ..... but it IS something I have always fancied having a go at and this had driven me to ask)

If you do mate, can I have a piece, I'm sure I'll have something to send you in return

Sorry Graham for the hijack

Me too...... Please...

Do you need any reindeer sinew?

Wow, I wouldn't mind a piece as well, and yes I watched Ray also . Maybe if anyone has a reasonable supply they could get a handful together and start there own Iron Pyrites sail thread.

I hope you don't mind me asking...

Which beach, I haven't come across any at heacham or hunstanton. I guess you might see on the further north east coast where the coal seams run into the sea.

Which beach do you think would be best along the Norfolk coast? I would like to find some for myself.
