Flint and steel fire
El Destructo:
Cool Fire too....Dana gave me a Flint and Steel Fire Starter Kit when I was Home last year....and I can barely get a Spark....let alone a Fire going..... ;) 8) :P
Pat B:
That's cool Tim. I have a set but haven't had luck with it.I need to just sit down and do it until it works! ::)
DanaM:
Congrats Tim :) With char cloth its pretty easy to do as long as the char cloth is dry, if one little
spark lands on it it starts to glow :) Mike I will have to show how when ya get back home eh :)
Timo:
Gonna start collecting some natural spark catchers from my woods. I have alot of milkweed and from that I can get the ovums.(Just learned about them)Also lots of fungus living in the woods.I gotta find out which ones work. New mission in life I guess? ;D
TRACY:
Very cool Timo! How many strikes did it take to ignite the char cloth? My 8 yr old son and I are slowly getting the materials to do the bow drill, can't wait.
Thanks for the pics, Tracy
