    I was just "playing" with some fatwood yesterday that I had in my garage. You are soooo right when talking about using it. You can feather it, light it with a fired source, but it would seem the most enjoyable easiest way is simply scrapping it down into a pile, spark it, and watch it burn. I will have to try that stand up and fill with scrappings when everything is wet. It looks like a great way to get wet tinder dried out enough to burn and ignite the twigs etc.
    thanks for another great video demonstration

    I don’t usually have any problems when I just shave off wide paper thin slices, even when everything is wet.
    The dust is a good option to have when or if you need it though without a doubt.

    I bought my victorinox when I wasn't interested in bushcraft fire starting. So I chose to have S14 model. It has a nice locking blade, scissors and everything but a SAW. It was the biggest mistake of my life so far. Maybe I can just grind backs of my other folding knives, benchmade, spyderco, fallkniven etc.
    Oh, recently I bought Speedy Sharp carbide sharpener to use as a striker and it gives me sparks like hellfire. It seems it is better than anything else. You may already know it but I just wanted to comment.
    So according to your video, it seems scraping gives you good dry tinders when it's raining. I will remember this. As always, thank you so much for the lesson, sir.

    Mr. West ➡, have you found shavings of fatwood be fairly reliable as a fire starter, even when being actively rained upon, like in your video?🤔🤔 Thank you for posting this information as I am new to Buschcraft!😁

  • @msilverhammer
    @msilverhammer 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Do you harvest your own fat wood?
    If so, the harvesting process might make a good video.
    Also, could you make a fire starter that would start in moist or damp conditions, and burn for 15 minutes?
    That would be interesting, and useful
    Finally, I can highly recommend the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Car Wash, followed by the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating.
    Very easy to apply, and phenomenal long lasting protection, and water beading.
    I purchased at Advance Auto, but available on Amazon, and at Turtle Wax.

      @@DavidWestBgood2ppl The power of a forest fire is hard to comprehend. A hot fire can create a mini cyclone that can pull an entire tree out of the ground. Foresters in Northern Ontario were seeing odd circular patches in the ground on air photos - turns out it was trees and/or stumps that had been ripped from the ground by fire.
