United Nuclear Thermite-high Yield (16oz)

Used this as a backpacking / wet weather fire starter. Works great! But you'll need a solid 3-4 ounces of thermite to reliably start a camp fire with a log and no kindling. Otherwise you'll just get a really good smolder on your fire wood which you can then use to build a fire with more kindling (but way less fun). That's one of the great things about science, we learn more when we fail than when it goes right the first time!

Works great

They’re not kidding when they say it’s hard to use, if you manage to get it to work maybe use goggles. I didn’t that was dumb

Fabulous. How much would you need for approximately a 180 pound log that is roughly 5’9 and has 4 limbs?
