Hand drill (matience) UPDATE

(1/2) > >>

Outbackbob48:
Haven't started a fire in about 2 months using the hand drill for the coal, Got out a Mugwort spindle and a white cedar hearth board and proceeded to turn out a coal, Arms heavy and out of wind almost failed, hands still have some callouses from earlier fire drill workouts. I found a old mouse nest of mostly dried grass in my wood pile, worked pretty good for tinder bundle. Bob
