Charred paper towels ignite well from Flint And Steel, Ferro Rod, Empty BIC, Solar, and embers. Let’s try the Flint And Steel technique to ignite the 2 paper towels that we charred yesterday… in all this humidity. Please follow the LINKs below and SUBSCRIBE.

I love all your videos, but I especially love the ones that have a little something extra like grabbing your garbage cans, or cooking breakfast. Thanks for the infotainment David!
Made a new David West hobo stove yesterday as the old one gave out. I've gotten quick at making them. I broke it in by charring a tin of punkwood. I will scrape some rust from the old one and do a cotton ball/rust fire roll too. Thank you for all of your lessons! You are a great teacher!
I think paper towel char cloth would work quite well ... but I also expect it to be veeeerrry fragile. Your dark t-shirts help show the sparks pretty well. Thanks, David. Oh, and I'm glad you didn't try igniting that 10 cents worth of fuel! That stuff is both precious and potentially hazardous! Love your nifty trash-cart hauling method. I'd try it, but my driveway is up hill toward the street - when the cart is heavy and full - so I'd end up dumping some of it into my trunk.
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl Understood and definitely forgiven. Besides, as I think I said once before, your driveway is one mile long going down and two miles long coming back up!! :D Mine's only 60 feet. You get enough exercise mowing and bow drilling!
I think you’re recommending casting the sparks down onto the char. It seems the obvious solution and I encourage you to try it like that. For me, there is no quicker way to ignite char than driving sparks into the torn fibers at the edge of char cloth or paper towels.
You can push the metal switch where the pistol goes in on the pump by hand, then squeeze the trigger while still in the tank to get all that fuel left in the hose. My grandpa used to do that when fuel was much cheaper.

David, Nice technique with the garbage cart retrieval. There is never any doubt about your ability to start fires.
I love all your videos, but I especially love the ones that have a little something extra like grabbing your garbage cans, or cooking breakfast. Thanks for the infotainment David!
That’s a good word for it. TY!

I would be making use of the exercise were it not for a bad right knee.

With all the sparks flying as seen in the slo-mo, wouldn't it be easier to hold the steel above the char and strike down with the flint?

Haha, I appreciate the follow-up from yesterday, David ! 🫡
By the way, I tried ashes on cotton with a broken bic on my channel ! Ember was slow to propagate, but it was a success 🫡
I love me some sequels.
2 techniques, Ashed Tinder and Empty BIC. Good one... or two!
@DavidWestBgood2ppl Thank you David ! 🫡
Hi David! I did a little search for "Logical Provisions," but didn't have any luck. Would you share a link? Thanks!
Search, Logical Provisions eBay chert
I just tried and can’t find it either
How often fo you have to sharpen the spine of your knife? Thanx.
It depends on how often I scrape and how hard the materials are.
Some of the stuff from the nozzle at the beginning of the vid would make for good fire making…
Ahh, don't try the gas station method at home.
You can push the metal switch where the pistol goes in on the pump by hand, then squeeze the trigger while still in the tank to get all that fuel left in the hose. My grandpa used to do that when fuel was much cheaper.
yeaaa thats a pass for me car fuel explodes insanely quick lol
I used to do it too.
