The round layers of a fire roll have to restrict and compact down into a very tight core before the pressure, friction, and chemical reaction can produce an ember. If you try to use fluffy fillers like scrapings, Lichens, Fungi, strips of char cloth, piths, etc. you will inhibit that much needed compaction. Always try to process your fillers down into dust or smaller. I will demonstrate today with char cloth smeared cotton. Please follow the LINKs below and SUBSCRIBE. Thank You!

David, even though you make fire every day, and I've seen hundreds of your friction videos, I never want to miss the next one. Somehow I learn something new each day! It's great because your research has revealed to you (and through your videos, to us) why your attempts fail, and then the critical small details that lead to success. I've proven (to myself at least) that persistent practice alone does not produce success. Failure, sadly, can be repeated hundreds of times until adjustments are made - material and tinder prep, technique, pressure, and some unique facts I've gleaned only from you. Thanks again !
You have to understand the technique before you can begin to think about possible materials. Remember, everything logical has already been tried. See my fire roll playlist.
Not meant to offend, But I'd have to write a couple of paragraphs about fire roll basics and why that was such a bad suggestion... outside fibers have to be much stronger than pine needles, fillers can't be resinous, fillers can't melt when heated they must ember, etc.

My pleasure, friend!
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl very welcome keep them coming 👍👌🔥
Try this
I assume punkwood dust or powdered charred punkwood would be ideal
Yes, see them demonstrated in my fire roll playlist.
What is the best way to store char cloth that's been made. Plastic zip-loc bag, clean empty plastic medicine jar or what do you suggest? Many thanks
Sealed. It absorbs moisture readily.
Thanks 👍
Have you used pine with resin dust.
You have to understand the technique before you can begin to think about possible materials. Remember, everything logical has already been tried. See my fire roll playlist.

So that is a wordy way of saying No
That it doesn't work I guess.

Now I know what I was doing wrong ty
You're the 2nd one to say that.
