Since the stuffed paracord slumped to the bottom of the bag I tried spreading it out evenly in the bag then carefully removing the entire bundle of cord in tact and placing it between two sheets of plastic freezer wrap that is slightly sticky (mostly sticky to itself though). Then slid that into the plastic zip close bag. I sat on the bag to press out as much air as possible then zip sealed it.

It stays in place a bit better but still slumped a little. Probably useable for my needs.

However, Glock-A-Roo, I do like that survival cord and carry system. I am not familiar with Technora, but if it is a derivative of Kevlar it probably will not melt.

And that lighter is quite awesome too!

Great input folks. Keep it coming...
