      +Martyntd5 Poor method? Sure, it takes time to gather the materials for your nest ( but I can do that while hiking throughout the day and I can gather enough to last for days) but once I have my material on hand it takes about 30 seconds to properly shape and form a nest and with char cloth I can get a spark and get flames in about 30 seconds. Yeah, not a poor method of starting a fire at all.
      As for survival, what do you do if you do not have any of your modern alternatives handing? If I have a knife or even just a chunk of metal I can start a fire, as flint is a relatively common rock and easy to find. Heck, with two sticks I can use the fire plough method to get a fire going. Sure, it takes a lot of effort but if you every find yourself in a situation where you have none of these modern alternatives you mentioned it is good knowledge to have. And that is why a lot of people prefer to use older methods of starting a fire whenever they can, because it is good practice. Plus it is fun. I have never gotten a thrill of accomplishing something with using a lighter or even using a magnesium fire striker. But, every time I use flint and steel, even if using char cloth instead of natural materials, I get a small thrill of accomplishment.

    @chantastic9199 8 лет назад

    This worked really well for me after a day of rain. I think a key factor is making sure the structure of your fire lay is hard wood, such as oak. I think pine would burn up too quickly causing the fire to collapse.

  • @ServantofBaal
    @ServantofBaal 6 лет назад

    I discovered an excellent way to keep a fire going in an absolute downpour, and that's by creating a Dakota fire pit large enough to burn larger logs, and then placing wet lumber you plan to use later over top of the smoke stack. This blocks most of the water from getting into the pit, to the point that the fire doesn't waste much energy, and the heat of the flames will dry the lumber to be used later. As an added bonus, this creates lots of steam, which can help transfer heat. I used this technique while it was raining in November, when the rain was so cold I was losing feeling in my feet, and using a cloak to create a chimney effect kept me perfectly dry and warm when the outside temperature was below freezing and the rain was bad enough to put out a regular fire

  • @bigchiefnowashietribe9657
    @bigchiefnowashietribe9657 8 лет назад

    Yes, Flint and steel, my favorite , I use a 2.5" section of an old flat mill file as my striker. ( grind off the teeth from the narrow sides but do not get it too hot) I use Shoe-Goo to attach a strip of leather down one side for a good grip. You can find an old file at flea markets and yard sales. Put it in a vise and hit it with a hammer,it will snap off in sections easy. An 8" x 1" file should give you 3 good strikers.

  • @charlesloveday9208
    @charlesloveday9208 8 лет назад

    Lily- have used this method of fire several times & seems to b best all the way around. If U feather the inside half of the log cabin "logs"- U can increase the speed n which the fire takes off. Sometimes little things will help n the long run. Thanks for all the great info- sure has helped me!

    Great video! I live in da jungle so its almost always wet here. Last night it got down to a chilly 70 degrees. The great thing about Hawaii is I can camp in every environment except for arctic and frozen tundra. Jungle, snow capped mountains, tropical beach and a hot desert(just to name a few) all in a 2 hour drive. Average ocean temp in December is 77 degrees so you can swim with dolphins while looking at snow capped mountains. Aloha!!!

    One thought: ahead of time, prior to going out to the woods, it dawns on me that sewing an 8" by 11" bag made out of thin cheesecloth or mueslin with a long purse strap would be IDEAL for storing and drying out grass for fires. Reason: you can stuff the bag with grass to be dried and then put it on underneath all of your clothes. *The proximity of the thin-cloth bag right next to your skin underneath heat-trapping garments should speed the drying process even faster.*

    Hehe I started with the cabin fire but I'm always too lazy to collect enough dry kindling to build a proper cabin. The tinder bundle is my favorite with a teepee built on top. My scouts know the cabin technique for cooking on because the structure holds a pot if you use green wood.

    This is the type of fire I was taught when I was in scouts. It works pretty good for most situations. I just got done watching your video on how to make money on RUclips. I have to say that I have several channels I watch regularly and I like their videos to be longer because it is like hanging out with friends. I like the short ones but am always disappointed when they end because I didn't get to spend enough time with them. Some people are just not that entertaining to me and the shorter videos are best. I can always watch a long video from the people I find entertaining. You are one of the ones I could watch for long periods of time. I also like The Outdoor Gear Review, with Luke. Another one I really like is JoeRobinet Bushcraft., I also like Bushcraft Stephi even though she has a lot to learn. I will learn with her. She has a great personality. Funny as hell.

  • @3flashcan
    @3flashcan 8 лет назад

    You should try an upside downside fire. You stack your wood cris cross like you did on this fire . you put bigger logs on bottom . Get plenty of very small twigs because it will take a little while for the logs to catch fire . Put your tinder on top and start the fire adding tinder until the bigger logs catch fire. This is a type of fire is very good to use when the ground is very wet. Plus for some reason it last twice as long as a fire built the regular way.

  • @donrussell8889
    @donrussell8889 6 лет назад

    a small woman can be accomodated inside of a bag made of a standard , 5x7 ft "heavy duty" space blanket, with a strip of cloth sewn all around, and snaps added every few inches. However, a 6 ft, 200 lb man needs a bag that's more like 6.5 x 7.5, for complete coverage. Keep your mouth and nose near a small hole in the bag, resulting from leaving one snap in the un-snapped condition. This mylar bag is not effected by its getting wet, and there's no zippers to jam or break. But you'll have to make it yourself cause no manufacturer has had enough sense to offer such a bag for sale.

    Easy to understand, good job. I am really into doing a mini Swedish log method in the silver fire stove, gives a 30 min burn so if like me wanting a simple bit of fire, it gives the ambiance with out to much fuss and is stealthy if you don't want attention drawn in more localized woods. i must get a nife as my billhook is to heavy any recs?

    Lilly, I am a fan of you and your channel.
    I have watched you blow a bird's nest too life on several occasions, but, each time you hold the bird's nest below the level of your head and blow down into it. As a result, each time you get smoked out and the fire leaps towards your face and head. Please try holding the bird's nest even with your head level and blow straight across, this will reduce the smoke in your face and reduce the chance of you getting burned at some point. In this video you have a lock of hair that is only inches away from the flame when it erupts.
    You do a great job with your video's and are an inspiration, but you may find this little tip to be a bit more comfortable and safer way to start that all so necessary fire. Keep up the good work.
