What little tips and tricks do you have to share for what many would consider somewhat simple tasks that your tip or trick can make even more simple?
For example...
When cleaning my firearms, I collect the cleaning patches in a small glass jar placed under the muzzle. When heading to the woods, I place quite a number of those patches in a 35mm film canister. The oils and solvents on the patches will easily catch a spark from a metal match and one patch will burn for 15 to 30 seconds...plenty of time to get an ember going in some dry tinder. This makes getting a fire started very easy for such a small amount of preparation and volume in your pack.
