Homemade Survival Matches with Pitch Glue

Description

Rebecca Whitman, my wife and co-founder of ReWild University, came up with this great idea for using pitch glue to make homemade survival matches. They're easy to make (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R4yExwKhS4&feature=youtu.be for a how-to on making pitch glue), are't toxic like commercial ones, and burn long and hot. Visit http://www.rewildu.com/bushcraft-sugru/ for much more info on making and using pitch glue.
