Introduction: Survival Pen You Can Take to School!
this is a little thing i came up with earlier: a pen with matches, tape, foil, and rubber bands that you could virtually take out in class and not get noticed! Supplies needed: rubber bands for braces, matches, tin foil, tape and a bic pen. (you can variate on these supplies)
Step 1: Deconstruction
Take out the guts of the pen (ink and black end thingy) as shown in pic.
Step 2: Reconstruction
Wrap your tape around something small, so it fits in the pen, wrap the aluminum foil around a match, and wrap the rubber bands in tape so it fits in the pen. Now pack it all in the pen, but not so tight that it gets stuck.
Step 3: Close It Up!
Pack a few more match heads in the lid and close it. Voila! you are now ready to safely take survival materials to school in case of zombie invasion or other disaster.

an idea...
replace the ink cartridge with a strike anywhere match, and pretend to write furiously... then you can fool your friends and make them think you wrote so hard to burnt your pen
with the stuff that happens in my classroom, it wouldn't be much of a stretch

With the way things are going, who knows? "Matches in a school, oooh lets expell him."

1. Be careful about where you put that pen, the heat inside could melt the rubber bands (the same as being in a hot car) and it would be easier for the matches to light 2. Next time you take pictures, put a cloth down or something first, the glare from the lampshade really messes with my AD.....ooh pretty light....D Nice job though
