I love these. The tin-can bread works great; I've made it for years although not for camping. The lanterns are my favorite.

Just saw this yesterday on Pinterest. Likey the hand washing station and the cardboard/wax/altoid flamey thing.

Awesome. Thanks feet

I can also vouch for the hand washing stations. When clean water is a long walk away, nobody will wash their hands, but these things are very portable and work well.

Another neat trick is that hand sanitizer also works well and does double duty as a halfway decent fire starter because of the high alcohol content.

Im definitely going to make a couple of the little oil lamps, the toilet paper holder, and the coffee tea bags.

Anyone ever tried roasting starbursts?
