If you struggle with Bow Drill because it's too physically demanding for you, try this. Use smaller spindles that are no larger than 3/4 to 5/8" diameter and loosen your bowstring. The bowstring should be just tight enough to drive the spindle. If you misjudge the appropriate tension you can easily use your thumb to increase it.
I know that some of our favorite Bow Drill experts on KZbin use very large diameter spindles... All I can figure is that they must be very powerful people. (You can not really judge how powerful someone is by how small or large they appear to be).
If you've given up on Bow Drill for these reasons, please give it another try. You'll be shocked at the difference. Don't forget to come back and share your success story in the comments. THANKS!
