This is a preparedness tutorial that explains how to make an emergency candle out of sawdust. It uses just 4 ingredients. After reading the article, this is really not only a candle but an amazing alternate source of heat. It’s also reusable. The author says this type of candle will heat a 9 x 12 room and keep it from freezing for 10 hours. She also plans to experiment with smaller versions that you can cook meals on.

I can see a lot of applications for a heating source like this: emergency heating backup if you lose heat during winter, heating backup for long hikes and camping trips, and a heat source for cooking.
