Outdoors Small Tools for Making Other Tools Kit

This kit has almost ever small thing you will need to be prepared. I put this kit together for my needs but you could add anything you want to it depending on what your needs are.

The Box

Acquire a hard sided box that you think will hold all your stuff. You may have to migrate to a larger box as you get more stuff. 

Lights and Batteries

It is important to bring lights but it is more important to bring the bateries

Tweezers

I have gotten lots if things stuck in my fingers while building tools so i have added a pair to my kit.

Fire steel is reliable and water proof but it is only as good as what you use to catch the spark that is where the dryer lint comes in. The trick is to put a little bit of air in the bag so the lint still has air in it. If that fails you should have matches in a waterproof container for a fall back. 

The Compass

Before going out in the woods you should always have a compass. Just because you have one dose not mean you know how to use it. I suggest finding a website and some practice.   

Floss
