Friction Fire
amateurhour:
I've done the flint and steel, ferro rod, and magnifying glass.
I got a piece of copper tube, caps, lead free solder, a wooden dowel, and some O rings this past weekend and I'm going to make a few fire pistons out of the materials to keep in my pack and give away.
It's the "easy" friction fire but it's a good backup to have.
sleek:
Love me some fire pistons!
willie:
Sleek, fiddler was showing his piston the other day, I gotta give that a try.
Scallorn:
Glis, no doubt i have weather on my side down here in TX! It is definitely not as easy to use a hand drill in wet weather, but i have been able to do it. And yes dried yucca spindles make a world of difference :G
Zuma:
I'm all ears, err eyes.
