 <title>Matchsticks from Natural Fibre</title>
 <link>http://west.gian.org/matchstick</link>
 <description>&lt;img class="thumb" src="http://west.gian.org/images/innovation/thumbs/thumb_1f6ab4e016c9391a7e77cf32409766ed-274.gif" /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The innovator has ingeniously developed matchsticks using natural fibers and a natural binding material.&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Natural fibers are put in order to form a thread like structure. These structures are passed through an
indigenously prepared paste mainly and kept for half and hour and heated for 10-15 minutes to become starch to act as the binding agent..&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify" class="MsoBodyText"&gt;The paste helps in achieving the strength and binding for the matchstick to retain its straight length. The thread is passed through the
starch solution. The starched thread is wound over a cylindrical drum with wooden slabs of width of the matchstick and length along the curved surface of the drum. These planks are provided with slots to cut the threads at uniform lengths. After cutting the threads they are dipped into the phosphorus solution
to coat the tips with the igniting material.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

sort of gadgets, which are very expensive in the market. Tongs are one of the commonly used gadgets used for these purposes. It is basically a utensil-holding device inevitable in any kitchen, laboratory and mechanical workshop. Tongs available on the market are often clumsy and invariable unsatisfactory for the user.
