3 Ways To Make Emergency Fire With A T-Shirt

  • When there's no dry tinder in the woods consider using parts of your t-shirt to Ferro Rod ignite. It will burn plenty hot enough to dry out and ignite the wettest kindling. Then make use of that emergency fire by using the same 100% cotton t-shirt to cook up some char cloth. Lastly, and alternately, if you don't have a Ferro Rod start thinking bow drill. Your t-shirt will once again save the day as your bowstring and tinder bundle. And, like I alluded to before, next fire mentality dictates that you make char material next. Let me demonstrate all 3 scenarios.

      In the land where the roses grow,
      Underneath the cloud's gentle throw,
      Lies England, with its head held high,
      Underneath the ever-changing sky.
      Clouds may gather, day by day,
      Hiding the sun's golden ray.
      But fear not, for they too shall pass,
      Revealing green fields of dew-kissed grass.

      I'm glad that most of my Subscribers are not bothered by the constant yapping of my neighbor's dogs. But, I have to listen to it day in and day out. Therefore, the mini rant. LOL!

    Great vid as always David.😊
    Perhaps also another good option which uses a t-shirt(some material better than others) to start a fire is using a sharp edge to shave up a lint ball.
    Then igniting that with whatever means of spark you have.
    The idea is in a survival situation you want to be efficient in using up as little of the resources that provide something for you as possible (while still acheiving the goal)...the t-shirt keeps you warm and protected to some extent.

    • @DavidWestBgood2ppl

      It’s not a good technique. Yes, you can ignite the scraped up cotton, but then, what do you ignite with such a tiny flame? A flame that only lasts a few seconds? I maintain that if something is ignitable enough to start burning from that scraped up cotton then it’s also flammable enough to ignite directly from the Ferro Rod.

    That would work well as long as I didn't sweat too much. On a hot humid day in lower Alabama I think my t-shirt will be wetter than the wood in a puddle. lol.
    Thanks David.

    Go Dave go! You should have been growling when you ripped the pocket off. BTW, I'll give you $5 for the pocket. I'll pay postage too!
    P.s. Just say the word and I'll take care of that dog.😊

    Paracord across Paracord get hot and will cut through itself. I wonder if a paracord fire thong would work. Also curious if a mountain bike could be turned upside down and used to spin something fast like an old saw mill?

    Thanks Dave, now i can't say those 100%cotton t-shirts are worthless, they DO have a purpose!!!! BTW I live in the far north and we say cotton kills

    • @DavidWestBgood2ppl
      @DavidWestBgood2ppl  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Once wet, cotton becomes a poor insulator and does a poor job of preventing hypothermia-hence the old adage, “cotton kills
