too bad, i was going to get some with my son this weekend (tampons), he found a pretty cool video last year
they make great fire starters, when camping or playing around
Vaseline melted fuel for fire
candle wax melted fuel for fire and waterproofing
dip the tampon 1/2 way in the Vaseline, and let it solidify
then dip the whole think in wax
pull it apart a little
fire striker
the untouched cotton lights up quick
that lights the petroleum jelly which also lights the wax
we get a good 5 minutes of flame, works a hell of a lot better than i thought it would
bunch of other dads at boy scouts were joking around as could be expected until they saw it work
fun project for a hours or so with the kids
