Poofire, Wallet Sized Fresnel Lens Fire With Some Rabbit Poop

[nancythetall]

Ha! I did that a couple of weeks ago with a dollar magnifying glass from the hardware store. Rabbit poop is truly magical!

im going to try it with my poop

Rabbit droppings? I thought they were wild rasins. I might be sick!

Good vid. Thanks for sharing. I carry a fresnel lens in my wallet to read menus when I forget my glasses or to start emergency fires!

Thanks again, in the spirit of Mcguyver,

@HikerJohn316 Hehe, Smart pills. Works great with just about any herbivore droppings. On a side note, Moose droppings actually smell really good when smoldering. Much like incense. I didn't believe it until a friend showed me. Fun with burning poo.

Needs some cowbell...

...or cow patties.. your choice bud ;-)

[nwmanitou]

definitely more cowbell

[OzaawaaMigiziNini]

Maybe next time you can use a rudimentary springpole lathe?

[nwmanitou]

naw, don't need one as I always carry a Shpadoinkle

[OzaawaaMigiziNini]

Good man, good man!

[kendjo]

awesome video

[nwmanitou]

@kendjo well thank you. Again, not something terribly new or complex. But just a little extra trick for this method of firemaking.

Good vid, that bark looks bone dry

[nwmanitou]

It's pretty much always dry like that. Even after rain or snow. Up under the "armpits" of the limbs the bark is usually plenty dry to catch a spark. Juniper is one of the best tinders available in this part of the country.

That's great!
