Friction fire - pump drill - first fire for year 2010

[brazenbunnies]

Wow. How do you make the drill that makes the fire? Did you really hold the fire bare handed?

@brazenbunnies

the pump drill : made from natural material (various woods, cane, smooth stones, deer skin, cotton string) and using a knife [although the could be replaced by some sharp edged stone] ;

holding the fire bare handed : easier than one think, as long as one keep the fire in one's hand for a short time only

@ncbookz

Thank you for this proposal. And sorry, but I try to stay clear from active advertising. Propaganda, logos, slogans, brands, personnalized misinformation, perpetual ballyhoo... I hate all this stuff... but still not enough to quit being a user-sufferer of a system conceived around advertising.

well done, nice design. you started the fire with one hand!! I think I will try this.

[freejutube]

Thank you for these good ideas ! I'll try.

I wonder if sand wrapped tightly in a rag and tied to a frame the way the stones are could be used as the counterweight. Or even wet clay, if you have no sand.

Thank you for posting this video.

@TheWomanoftheWoods I've heard of people ductaping rocks onto the frame to use as counterweights before.
