Water Proof Matches |
|
|
|
|
| This is a really simple project.
To make matches water proof all you need to do is dip some wooden "strike
anywhere" matches into melted wax. After dipping, lay them out to
dry on a piece of aluminum foil. When wax is hard, remove from foil
and pack them away. Bee's wax is the preferred wax to use because
it stays soft whereas other waxes get pretty stiff. Either will work if
that's all you have.
NOTE: Don't put the wax on too thick, you could break the matches when you pull them a part. |
