Ashed Cloth! Carry fire for hours
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Check Out My 100's Of Fire Making Videos... I took a 4' strip of cotton t-shirt material, saturated it with wood ashes, and lit it with a "twig" from my Ferro Rod campfire. I demonstrate how ashed cloth makes such a great coal extender that it can be used to carry fire for hours. I got 3 hours of burn time today, but could have touched off another 4' section for more time. With the last couple of inches of the smoldering cloth, I made fire, snuffed it out, Flint and Steel ignited it again, and made another fire...
Redundant, I know, but here it is in a nutshell... one 4' strip of ashed cotton cloth will allow you to carry fire for 3 hours, allow you to make that next fire, and when snuffed out will provide you with a Flint and Steelable char for future fires.

Any person into bushcraft or primitive skills who doesn’t regularly check out your fire videos is missing out. Thank you for your dedication.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
You as well.
Another nice one Dave. I can't tell you how much I've learned from you. Thank you.
There's an eastern European thing some call a comet. A tin can with coals in it, on a string, for carrying fire around for hours in the cold. With the ashed cloth, maybe that could be extended farther.
Great video. I have subscribed and working my way through your back catalogue. This is a great place to learn (not sure if that's your intention) but also you have encouraged me to try different stuff. Cheers from Sel in the U.K.
Yes, I want people to learn different fire techniques.Thanks!
Great video I have learned so much from you and I practice making fires thank you
Amazing the ashes works so great. Keep them coming.
Amazing stuff, might have to try this out with some spare bedsheet (100% cotton) and see how it works. But then again, I try everything you upload - great stuff David! Tim
I suppose the thicker the material the longer the burn. Let me know how it works for you.
Being able to transport your fire to your next camping spot is REALLY COOL! Plus the bonus is, that you can F&S it right back up at any time. Once again...GREAT VIDEO!
Thanks! Friend!
Great video David you have definitely expanded my fire starting knowledge. I have taken that knowledge and practiced with great success. I have also had success in high moisture environments. I'm putting up a video this next week and i'll be crediting you! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Can't wait to see it!
Great stuff! Thanks again
Great Idea David !!! Many Thanks !!
Wow, that's amazing how long it lasted!
Okay thank you Dave 😉
your channel is so fricken cool!!!
I appreciate that!
Look for movie titled "Quest for fire" here on utube. One of the best comedies I've ever watched. The keeper of the flame is hysterical.
Pretty neat .
That is impressive.
Incredible

How to carry it you ask???... Think about the survival shows we've watched where they had a makeshift container and tried carrying coals and punk wood with them as they hiked through the woods or jungle. Remember how cumbersome it was to carry, keep your balance , make progress, etc. with them?... My first thoughts about a way to carry this coal extender was, hanging out of my leaf lined pocket, 6" at a time. It would require regular attention as it would probably be consuming more quickly than on my fire table. You'd also have to make sure that nothing snagged it.... Or, you may want to just ball it up in your hand and leave a burning tail sticking out.
Lot's of good ideas there.
That sounds like it would work!
Great video as always, David. How would you suggest to carry the coal extender if you're hiking from one camp to another? Maybe that's for another video.

Great suggestions Dave. Thanks. It's so cool that you actually reply to people's comments. I watch a lot of your videos and learn something useful from every one of them. BTW, you have a great testimony too. Keep 'em coming brother. @@DavidWestBgood2ppl
What an impressive demonstration, but why in the world did you hate your intro?
I always loved it... 👍👌
About a day of prep that failed miserably. This was the salvageable part of 2 days of experiments.
Unbelievable, there’s so much effort behind your excellent tutorials!
Thanks for that Dave(!) - over the years I’ve learned tons of tricks from you... 🔥
⚠ *CAUTION* ⚠
🔥 *FIREBUG!* 🔥
Viewer discretion is ill-advised.
LOL! Seriously though, reckon this pandemic is going to turn into the very reason that we've been doing all this survival practice?
That was really cool David! You're on a roll with this stuff. Do you have any thoughts on how you might carry it while smoldering?

@@DavidWestBgood2ppl That makes good sense to me. 👍
Love your videos, David. I'm not sure if you're familiar with my survival books, but I'd be glad to send you "Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why" from W.W. Norton. It has been the bible of survival for nearly 20 years.
No thank you.
Have you tried coating this with wax to weatherproof it? Awesome stuff, regardless. Thank you for posting.
No.
How do you carry that for transport? Wadded up it would burn as a mass, i think. Maybe wrapped around perforated tin and laid in a perforated tin can?
BTW, thx for the great info!
I would try wrapped in green leaves and controlling how much oxygen gets to the ember. Check out this "moving fire" video. ruclips.net/video/kgzb_R3HBgY/видео.html
You never seace to AMAZE me, that's something else for me to try 😉
How do I get in touch with you? Is there an email or something? The reason I ask is because I do a lot off bushcraft survival skills with the Scouts here in England and with thanks to you and with your help I could teach them a lot more 🔥
Sorry... We can talk in the comments.
Awesome! Hey, I wonder if you would get an even hotter coal by ashing denim BEFORE charring in a tin?? Sorry if you tried and I missed it....
I tried years ago and it made bad char cloth.
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl Thanks for letting us all know, Dave... as a matter of fact, thanks for ALL of your videos. In my opinion, yours are among the most educational on how to make fire happen!
