The Hand Drill-Primitive Fire Making
Loading...
Uploaded by olmarnow on Dec 31, 2008
In this short clip of my DVD, "WOODSWISE SURVIVAL SKILLS, PRIMITIVE FIRE MAKING", I demonstrate making fire with the hand drill. I sell a complete kit on ebay that comes with a Bow Drill or Hand Drill Set & a one hour instructional DVD. The complete kit sells for $18.00 + S&H. My seller name on ebay is stickfires.

@olmarnow Thanks for the reply!

@mountaingoat47 Seep willow is what works well. The Indians in my neck of the woods use to use cattail. I've never gotten it to work, but I only tried it once. Horseweed works well. There are others but at this moment they have left my mind. I'll do some thinking and get back to you. Oh, yea Teasel and sotol (like yucca) works too.

we don't have mulefat, we have willow but have failed at it in the past. ill try elderberry. another question though, does cattail work well? i herd people have used it but i was skeptical because it seems too soft to properly drill in any type of wood.

@getatme139 Good job. I'm happy for you. Keep on practicing.

@olmarnow no problem i just found the best hand drill ever, i have mullien on red western cedar, i got a coal in 20 seconds
-
@mountaingoat47 what types of wood or weed stalks do you have there? Willow, mulefat, elderberry? These work pretty well. I'm just not familiar with the materials in your neck of the woods.

@getatme139 Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I'm sorry I can't send you a hand drill kit. If I sent you one and everyone else that wanted one it would get very expensive. I can sell you one, but I can't give any away. So sorry my friend.

@MikeMPSSstudent Wow, thanks my friend. I don't work with North-South Coast Primitive Skills Community. I'm all on my own. Again thank you for watching and for you comment.

@demover7 Hey thanks for watching and for the comment. Yes the tinder bundle was made from untwisted JUTE twine. It works great. The inner bark of a ceder tree is the best in my opinion.
