Altoids.

Great list. Some time ago, SkyOwl asked me to get some - for the tins. This must be what he had in mind.

Another mystery solved!

That or he likes the mints.

[Skyowl's Wife]

No, he hates them. Unless they are the cinnamon ones, then he'll eat them. Of course, I had to buy the peppermint ones. :p

The girls bags are packed with 2 of these tins. One is a small first aid kit. Just band aids and wipes for small cuts and scrapes. I'm always refilling these after a hike. The other is a small fire kit with fat wood, pj cotton balls, lighter and a box of matches.

No firesteel and striker? Why not?

I have several. One has a home made 40 meter transceiver and another has an 80 meter transceiver. I built a CW keyer in one. They work great and take up no room.

Good deal. The possibility for use is only limited to ones imagination.

Just came across this last night, off a homestead page on facebook... didnt think all the ideas were that realistic, but a few looked worth trying...

I've seen that before, then couldn't find my link. Thanks for posting it.

My kit has similar contents including benedryl as I can be highly allergic to just about anything. I do not use an altoids tin, though, rather a plastic water tight cigarette box. Its about half again as big, but still carriable. Sold at most smoke shops for $5.

I tranferred the contents of my Ritter PSK into one - less conspicuous that way.
