Use a candle and paper, combination, setting it as close as possible to the inflammable material you want to burn: From a sheet of paper, tear a strip three or four centimeters wide and wrap it around the base of the candle two or three times.

Use uma combinação de vela e papel, colocando-a o mais próximo possível do material inflamável que deseja queimar: De uma folha de papel, rasgue uma tira de três ou quatro centímetros de largura e enrole-a ao redor da base da vela duas ou três vezes.

Twist more sheets of paper into loose ropes and place them around the base of the candle.

Torça mais folhas de papel em cordas soltas e coloque-as ao redor da base da vela.

When the candle flame reaches the encircling strip, it will be ignited and in turn will ignite the surrounding paper.

Quando a chama da vela atingir a tira que a envolve, ela será acesa e, por sua vez, incendiará o papel ao redor.

The size, heat, and duration of the resulting flame will depend on how much paper you use and how much of it you can cramp in a small space.

O tamanho, o calor e a duração da chama resultante dependerão de quanto papel você usar e de quanto dele você conseguir comprimir em um espaço pequeno.

(2) With a flame of this kind, do not attempt to ignite any but rather inflammable materials, such as cotton sacking.

(2) Com uma chama desse tipo, não tente acender nada além de materiais bastante inflamáveis, como sacos de algodão.

To light more resistant materials, use a candle plus tightly rolled or twisted paper which has been soaked in gasoline.

Para acender materiais mais resistentes, use uma vela mais papel enrolado ou torcido com firmeza que tenha sido embebido em gasolina.

To create a briefer but even hotter flame, put celluloid such as you might find in an old comb, into a nest of plain or saturated paper which is to be fired by a candle.

Para criar uma chama mais breve, porém ainda mais quente, coloque celulóide, como o que se pode encontrar em um pente velho, dentro de um ninho de papel simples ou saturado que será incendiado por uma vela.

(3) To make another type of simple fuse, soak one end of a piece of string in grease.

(3) Para fazer outro tipo de fusível simples, mergulhe uma extremidade de um pedaço de barbante em graxa.

Rub a generous pinch of gunpowder over the inch of string where greasy string meets clean string.

Esfregue uma pitada generosa de pólvora sobre o centímetro de barbante onde a parte gordurosa encontra a parte limpa.

Then ignite the clean end of the string.

Em seguida, acenda a extremidade limpa do barbante.
