I could fit more band-aids and what not in this round can, I have an Altoids sized can as well, I may cut out one or two things on this one to fit it into the other can OR I have enough stuff, I may just make another.

Here is a size reference.

My son was kind enough to give me the "Eggnog Bubblegum" can
I found the band-aid, Tweezers, Can's and cleaning supplies at home or work.
I bought the Paracord, Wetfire, whistle, Matches and PUR water filter items at Rereation Outlet here in Salt Lake City.
Hope that qualifies as an entry.
Thanks
 
ok..i'm yer huckleberry. i need to get some stuff together first. i already have a package but its an old med kit, mmm kinda big for what you're doin here.
 
I had my first malfunction... :roll:
The Wetfire that I put into a clear plastic bag had leaked, I didn't notice it before, But it appears they have some sort of petroleum distillate(from the smell of it) and it ate through the plastic, I have put in two new single factory packaged wetfire's
