Awesome video!!! Best fat wood ive ever seen in your videos! Would you be willing to sell a little bit? I would love to try it out!

New here. Awesome videos you've dropped sir

Very informative video for discovering fatwood. Thank you for sharing your time in the woods with all of us.

Which volume was that again? Seventeen?

Brother, one good pine like that can provide a lifetime of fatwood! You got alot of processing to do on that one tree! Keep going to it! I want to see every part of that tree recovered for fatwood! Your cuts left 67% of the fatwood in the heart of those trunks. I want to see more!

I though I had good looking fatwood , that is very concentrated congrats

Do you worry about termites?

Do you store the processed pieces any special way ? Plastic bags or buckets ? Does it tend to dry out ? Nice knots ! I’ve been hunting around here in Indiana but not found anything that big.

I enjoy your videos, this is the second one that I watch, they are very relaxing, by any chance do you sell some of your fatwood ? I want to make a hand made present for my kiddo and I need a piece of fatwood that is at least 2 inches thick by 3 inch long , please let me know .

Lou im so glad ur out scouting the forest and finding treasures, Its good to see u making these videos that inspire the rest of us to do the same.

Have you ever done a video of all your fat wood stash? You must have tons.

You've got me excited about my next walk through the woods here in the south of Scotland with my Patterdale Terrier, Tino. We have all kinds of forests surrounding my little town so i'm guessing i'll come across a ton of fatwood knots.

That deer is going to be a friend for life.

I still have the fatwood madallions you made for me.....keep on hunting....1st in

just what we needed... thanks. have a terrific THANKSGIVING..

Looks like many forests that I visit. Great knots and lovely roots. Wow, coming up on your 50th hunt. Always love your music 🤘🎸🌲💥🔥

What do u do with the wood afterwards

Man you must have a serious fat wood collection building up lolololol

HE'S BACK..........GREAT ADVENTURES....😁

First

dude this was awesome no kidding

Don't mean it in a bad way, but I don't think using that hatchet to baton is not such a great idea. You take a chance of severely damaging your knife.

Great video. You have a warm spirit. I have a bunch of fatwood knots/joints carved down for ferro rod handles. Been too busy to use them. The lines are very cool. Beautiful 🦌 deer. I had one take a nap about 50 yards from my camp one day. I was flattered. I believe you're absolutely right. They know who has safe vibes & who has aggressive vibes.

I appreciate the video! Thank you

Lou if people sqy all ur videos are the same, that just means they dont love fatwood as much as we do.

Lou i am amazed at your positive energy, u are an awesome guy. Nice huge fatwood log too. So special that she trusts u too.

was getting worried about you buddy.. glad to see you are ok.. thanks for the video..

yahooooo welcome back buddy.....glad to see ya.....

This was awesome all around. Keep it burning brother!

ive been out today (uk) and found douglas fir to be poor for fat wood.... but that's a beautiful fatty you found!

I added a 10" electric chainsaw for this very purpose.

Very nice! You should give oversized pieces as gifts and save money there too. Who wouldn't want a big piece of that?

Joe Pesci……now I know why I haven’t seen him in films. He’s in da woods lookin’ for fatwood!

Love your passion and I appreciate your labor and sharing. God bless you sir.

What ya'll call fatwood is what we here in Florida call "lighter." We are extremely fortunate as this resource in central Florida is almost like salt in the sea, it's damned near everywhere. My best friend owns a cattle ranch and lighter is EVERYWHERE. We have a huge pile at his camp that we have collected over the years, and I'm talking giant stumps and logs that take a chainsaw to cut if you don't want to work yourself to death with a folding saw. We have a decent amount of processed product in various forms. Mostly when we have an event, or cookout down at camp we just chop some material from the pile and start our campfire, keep our processed material for "emergencies." Great video, thank you for posting.

Great haul! I carry a small can of WD40, spray it on the saw blade/teeth, and the resin doesn't stick to it. Cutting efficiency goes way up. You have a great fatwood forest. Thanks for sharing your find and technique.

Would you send me a piece of unprocessed fatwood. I live in the middle of Arizona, 2 hours away from any pine tree.

Do you ever take the core of the tree also?

Happy New Year Tony

That's gold baby!

Lou you need a 45acp

You left so much fat wood behind just from the knots you cut. There’s so much more in the trees you left

I actually found my 1st great find yesterday here in Fl. I've done a couple knots, which were not bad, had a vein of solid resin. Yesterday I found a fallen tree stump standing 3-4' above ground. The tree originally was probably an easy 12-18" diameter. I knocked off all the Rot, came to the core/heart/center and cut at ground level on the core. The core was approx 8" Diameter, full of Sap. The crazy thing was all the concentrated Sap was in the rings but full. I'm yet to find the 100% gold what u showing, I do now know where to look 👍✌

I'm in Fl, from NM. I've been camping for years and always practiced survival. Today, here in Fl, I found my 1st true piece of Fatwood. I was in a burn out, found a fallen tree, the stump I knocked off all the Rot, got down to the heart/center, started cutting this stuff and u talking a Cardio workout, plus the blade of my Bow Saw kept gumming up, I got a piece an easy 4' piece FULL of the Gold. Tomorrow I'm gonna cheat and use my Chop Saw to cut to length then process into workable pieces. Crazy, been in the woods my whole life and now I'm an ol F**K, dontcamp like I use to I learn about Fatwood . U know how many pieces of this stuff I've burned, knowing about the Sap, never knew of using for Survival. 👍👍, good hunting, camping, survival, this is amazing stuff processed right!

U said this tree was cut down a year ago? Was this tree dead when it was cut down, because WHERE did the stump get all the Resins if their was NO tree above?

Great video, too bad we can't hear U

I have a question 🙋‍♂️ What about that timber rattlesnake 🐍 under that log 🪵 you are sitting 🪑 on!

A life times supply.
