Do you remember lighting wooden matches with a magnifying
glass?
It was kind of fun. Then we noticed that if you put a match
into a coricidan bottle, and then used the magnifying glass,
then it would fire the plastic cap off. Two or three matches,
even further.
Well gosh, what would happen if you fill the coricidan bottle
with matches and then use the magnifying glass. It's hard to
tell, but the bottle was gone and we counted our blessings and
quickly agreed not to try it again! As I recall, I was advising
against that "experiment", but all too often I was in the wrong
place at the right time like that. I guess my friends and I
liked "action". I've got a few more stories like that, but I
hate to give Lew ammunition.

When we were kids we,, I had to pay neighbor kids 5 cents to
make me one.... a wooden clothes pen kitchen match igniter and
launcher. I never could quite figure out how to make one but
the spring ended up on the outside of the two wooden pieces and
you would cock it, insert the kitchen match head first, and then
press back on the spring. The match would fly out out about 6
feet and on fire. Mom took mine away. ;~(

Thet looked very similar from what I can remember some 50 years back.

That's the safest way to light your LOX-assisted charcoal fire.
