A man cannot call himself peaceful if he is not capable of violence. If he's not capable of violence he isn't peaceful, he is harmless. There is a distinct difference.

Re: DIY Small Survival kit
IMO, this Maxpedition Mini knockoff would make a great survival kit container: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000330 ... 4c4dQYPk1Q
I purchased several with the intent of making small first aid kits, and I am pleasantly surprised at the overall quality. It comes with a very good molle attachment with double stitched loops. The elastic inside the bags is also double stitched. But all other stitching is single - still a good value. Took about three weeks to arrive from China.
In a way, this bag is better than the Maxpedition Mini: https://www.amazon.com/Maxpedition-Micr ... 176&sr=8-3 because the Mini doesn't have the molle attachment.
FWIW, as soon as I can get ny hands on a cardboard egg carton, I am going to try your DIY fuel tabs: http://sepboard.us/viewtopic.php?f=7&t= ... 66b7776561 Thanks! You're the bomb David!

Re: DIY Small Survival kit
I appreciate it
I have one of those mini bags off Ali like you posted. Yep, there just fine and about a 7th of the price so it's hard to beat. Had it for a few years now and it will work just as well for a small kit.

Here's an altoid kit I put together a while back:
Re: DIY Small Survival kit
What is the orange thing in the middle with the string? For fishing? And what are you using the ear plugs for?

Re: DIY Small Survival kit
It's a whistle:
....just used it to wrap some Spider wire fishing line around and to store a set of SAK tweezers.
The ear plugs are just in case I want to do some shooting or are around load noises.
