Ensign-Bickford master fuse lighter
A shell, similar to a shotgun cartridge, that contains an ignition compound in the base. As many as seven fuses can be pushed into the shell until the fuses contact the ignition compound. The lighting of one fuse, which burns into the shell, sets off the compound and ignites the other six fuses.
