Thanks to television young people (and the not so young) are being reawakened to these ancient human skills and are curious to discover the secrets for themselves. Bushcraft activities include things like natural shelter building, string making, cooking wild foods on an open fire and maybe even a bit of tracking. Among the many benefits to be gained are an awareness of natural resources, the drawing out of people’s initiative/creativity, self- reliance and an atmosphere of a mini adventure. One of the most exciting parts of Bushcraft is the lighting of a fire using only natural resources by Dave and your own skill and ingenuity.

    In the Autumn 2011 edition of The Quiver I wrote an article touching on the topic of survival as it applies to the bowhunter. In this article I want to talk about fire specifically and the different types of firestarters and techniques available. Fire is an important element in a survival situation as it provides heat for warmth, drying clothes or cooking as well as a psychological boost and if you’re hunting in a spot where you are one of the prey species it can keep predators away as well. There are many ways to start a fire; some ways relatively easy and some that would only be used as a last resort. There are pros and cons to most of these techniques. The most obvious tool for starting a fire is a match. While this is a great way to start a fire in your fireplace or fire pit I personally don’t like to carry matches in my pack or on my person. They are hard to keep dry and you are limited to one fire per match IF you can light a one match fire every time. It would be easy to run out of matches in a hurry as you are limited in how many you could reasonably carry. A Bic lighter or one of the more expensive windproof lighters is a slightly better choice for the bowhunter to carry. They are easy to use, easy to carry, fairly compact, and last for a reasonable amount of “lights”. They don’t work well when wet but can be dried out fairly easily.

  • Low-Impact Living Initiative
    firecraft what is it? It's starting and managing fire, which requires fuel, oxygen and ignition. The more natural methods usually progress from a spark to an ember to a flame in fine, dry material (tinder), to small, thin pieces of wood (kindling) and then to firewood. Early humans collected embers from forest fires, lightning strikes and even volcanic activity. Archaeological evidence puts the first use of fire between 200-400,000 years ago – a time that corresponds to a change in human physique consistent with food being cooked - e.g. smaller stomachs and jaws. The first evidence of people starting fires is from around 10,000 years ago. Here are some ways to start a fire. Friction: rubbing things together to create friction Sitting around a fire has been a relaxing, that generates heat and produces embers. An comforting and community-building activity for example is a bow-drill, but any kind of friction will many millennia. work – e.g. a fire-plough, involving a hardwood stick moving in a groove in a piece of softwood. what are the benefits?

  • August 2015 the LEARNING CIRCLE: NOTES, THOUGHTS & PROJECTS
    EARTH SKILLS NEWS www.earthskills.com © Jim Lowery August 2015 THE LEARNING CIRCLE: NOTES, THOUGHTS & PROJECTS I. Improve your bow drill firemaking Have you struggled with getting a bow drill fire consistently? Do you wonder what’s wrong with your apparatus or technique? Would you like to be able to try some more advanced tricks that will make firemaking easier for you? The bow drill is, in my view, the most practical of all the primitive firemaking techniques. You can get fire with many kinds of woods in many habitats, without bringing anything with you—even cordage or a knife. The hand drill is simpler, but in most locations only two or three woods at most can be used for the hand drill and hearth, and that only using very well practiced technique and strength. However I have made bow drill fires with 28 woods in my area. When we teach bow drill firemaking in our classes, we stress that mastering the technique is the most important factor. Many students, both men and women, need practice and especially the wrist and arm strength that goes with it, but if the technique is correct, success will come with time and practice. On the other hand, bad habits die slowly and so in this article I want to offer some trouble-shooting, a few reminders based on the mistakes we see most commonly with students, and some more advanced tips. (A review of the bow drill apparatus and technique can be found in your notes from our Wilderness Skills class, in Tom Brown, Jr.’s Field Guide to Wilderness Survival, and Larry Dean Olson’s Outdoor Survival Skills.

  • Primitivefire.Com Bowdrill Fire Manual
    PrimitiveFire.com Bowdrill Fire Manual This manual contains in-depth instructions for making bowdrill fires quickly and efficiently. Please note that 95% of the effort that goes into making a bowdrill fire has nothing to do with physical strength, but it has to do with the equipment that you are using, technique, and preparation. This manual covers the proper technique for making bowdrill fires quickly, efficiently, and reliably. Step 1: Making a Nest • Before you ever begin to bowdrill you need to make a nest. To make a proper nest that you will place the coal produced by your bowdrill equipment into – take the end of a long strand of juniper, cottonwood or similar flexible bark material into one hand. Wrap the tinder (bark) around that hand, or 3-4 fingers if you want to conserve your nesting, until there is approximately 6-8 inches of the strand left hanging. Tuck the remaining 6-8 inches of the strand into your nest and fashion it so that it looks and feels like a real bird’s nest. The nest should be tight and not easily taken apart once you are done with the wrapping stage. There should not be large holes anywhere in the nest for the coal to fall through. The last step of making the nest is to put in “fines”. This is super important and cannot be overlooked. Take a couple of inches of tinder (bark) and start rolling it, shredding it, and breaking it into fine pieces. You don’t want the fines to be powder, but it should be reduced to just fibers.
