Using your motorcycle spark to start a camping fire! 1936


This has got to be the most insane idea I've seen in a long while!

What can go wrong?

Done with reasonable care, that fire-starting method should work fine, and not set the bike on fire.

Perhaps ingenuity and insanity are two sides of the same coin.

Further to previous -- another take:

A great deal of what gets published as 'how-to' information is actually nothing more than 'thought experiment'. One wonders whether 'W.A.' was ever an existing person, and whether he ever tried the method for real.
