....you KNOW you have serious issues when you make up around 20lbs of cedar noodles from a big knarly cedar stump and bring them in the house to season in front of the fireplace!! "What in the heck would he make cedar noodles for?", you ask..... This stuff works fantastic for using as tinder bundles during our 'fire-by-friction' activities with the boy scout troop, and the winter Klondike Derby is just over a week away. We needed some tinder, and I only had some recently cut cedar. Sooooo, here ya go. The whole house smells like pencils......lmao
I can hear lectures about storing flammables within a published and documented safe distance to combustibles
Now, before everyone does that to me, I sat there the entire time, flipping the pile over and over until it was dry.... Wifey came home from work, walked into the kitchen and said "what the heck is that smell???" Lmao... She then proceeded to walk all through the house looking for a pencil sharpener mounted to a wall......
Bow drill, pump drill, flint and steel. Some of our kids have all three methods mastered....I wanna learn the plow and trough and also hand drill someday. I will have to get on making some new videos of the bow drill and pump drill.....
Heres my knife and ferro rod set up. Its an ESEE 6with L.T. WRIGHT Sheath and ferro rod. I use the serrations on the knife to throw serious sparks
Did you try some? Sounds like making Chex mix! We cut tons of Cedar at work always come home covered in it love the smell
And my knife I use for bowdrill. If its good enough for the DUAL SURVIVAL guy its good enough for me lol
