thanks for being honest, it’s a lot harder to find fat than most channel’s say

[@mountainbond1743]

You bet! I got really lucky with that piece! Thanks for watching 🤙

[@John5.56]

Yeah unless you live around a ton of pine or spruce it’s not as common as on the KZbin’s lol.

[@jimthomas1989]

I found over 700 pieces of Fat Wood in a spand of 6 months time ! I was bringing home 5 to 30 pieces home each day I went out !

The prayer to the fat wood gods quickly earned the subscribe button 🤣

[@rintintinman9223]

Raised and work on a Sawmill, for 30 years, and didn't know this,,, Thank you.. Watch out Fat Wood,,, here I Come.

[@mountainbond1743]

Awesome! Thank you for watching 🤙 hope you find some good pieces

[@rintintinman9223]

@@mountainbond1743 I've got a really good eye for this kind of thing, I hunt, walking sticks, burls, and Spalted woods. I'll take time,, to find some "fat", but, don't care, just being alone in the bush is reward enough. May you continue to enjoy your bush, "boogies".

[@Bastos9458]

I chuckled at your prayer to the fatwood gods. Good job.

[@mountainbond1743]

Glad I got a chuckle out of you! Thanks for watching 🙌

[@A-10goBRRRT]

amazing praying technique no wonder i've been having a hard time. you've gained a new sub

[@mountainbond1743]

Hahaha thank you!!!

[@Jesus4444me]

Great video, thank you! I've been struggling to find any decent fatwood, just 1/4" around branches but not saturated. I laughed way too hard at your praying technique, tried it myself today in a new spot and it worked!! Nothing like the monster you found but on the right track! Thanks man amd God bless you! ❤️🙏🏼

[@mountainbond1743]

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed this video and found it helpful. Sometimes you just gotta pray to the fatwood gods haha. I'm sure if you keep poking around you'll find one just as big if not bigger! Thanks for watching, and reaching out!! God bless!

[@puppiesarepower3682]

​​@@mountainbond1743 You prayed very much in the language of an Animal Crossing character. One could say you were speaking in tongue.

[@Kaufeetimevideo]

I subscribed immediately after the pinewood gods

[@ripstickgaming995]

Just starting my journey in bushcrafting and was wondering how to find this stuff! thanks for the video!

[@mountainbond1743]

[@erikfogelmark4476]

Nice guiding, no matter what the hecklers say. Thank you. 👍

[@spoede64]

Beautiful chunk of gold! Best shavings by using the sharp edge of your knive's spine. I sharpen mine in a 90° angle to get a good scraper out of it.

[@mountainbond1743]

I’ll try that out! Thanks for sharing!!! And thanks for watching 🤙

[@curlyman7]

Really good video

[@mountainbond1743]

Thank you!!

[@mountainbond1743]

Thank you for watching!!!🙌

[@BkBuddha02]

Badass video bruv

[@geopolska]

I keep finding fatwood in pallets I sometimes have as a firewood, cutting them planks into short slabs and then shaving them with a hand plane set for thick shavings.

[@mountainbond1743]

Very nice!! I gotta try that out

[@fwright4772]

That’s cool thank you I watch for other videos

[@mountainbond1743]

Thanks for watching! 🙌

[@fernandsavoie6641]

Great vid! Thanks for sharing, I wish I would’ve seen it sooner. Was out this pm looking for resin wood, aka fat wood. I found a couple of small pieces off some dead pine tree but nothing like your monster piece! I’ll definitely do the fat wood God call next time I’m out in the woods. You got a new subie…

[@mountainbond1743]

I hope you end up finding some big pieces! Haha yah the fat wood god call always helps😂 I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching and subscribing 🙌

[@Dr.AculaMD]

Gonna use that prayer next time I head up for more pinon fatwood.

[@glee0425]

Where I hunt there’s a bunch of pines that has a lot of dead branches at the base. I’ve been cutting them and collecting them. Spent 1 hour collecting fat wood instead of hunting. 😂

[@harrisquicksilver6595]

Oh man u got me drooling over here, id give u 100 bucks for that log.

[@theyearwas1473]

I've never understood how people struggle to find this stuff. Look for some dead trees. Gravity based low points. Look for dead pine, spruce trees. Search for sap covered end, cut. Tah dah You can even make your own if you're patient want to wait a handful of years

[@peterschmidt6754]

Dude! Do not kick at a springy tree stump while flailing a hatchet!!!

[@KrzysztofJarzębiński-l2k]

Once I've found a log that's 20 cm in diameter and 6m long. Me and my friend jaws just dropped. It was on small island on water reservoir. I've noticed lot of pine trees there have covered bark in resin.

[@mountainbond1743]

Wow!!! That sounds like a life time supply! Hope to one day find one like that🙌 thanks for sharing and thanks for watching 🤙

[@nutthrower4415]

FatWood is my go to, never leave home without it. It’s in both rigs, packs, bags you name it 👍

[@mountainbond1743]

It’s incredible stuff! Thanks for watching 🙌

[@NikosKatsikanis]

you found $100 worth of fat wood with that insane stick

[@mountainbond1743]

So crazy!! I got really lucky with that one!

[@sethmoking]

Is it only Pine trees or is it all/most evergreens?

[@mountainbond1743]

Great question! It seems that Pine trees in particular are the only ones where I've been able to find fatwood. Hope that helps🤙 and thanks for watching!!!

[@GrumpyVet71]

I've heard you can find it in some cedars and hardwoods.

[@LiveFree765]

@@GrumpyVet71 You definitely can find fatwood in cedar. The aroma of burning cedar is so pleasing.

[@GrumpyVet71]

@@LiveFree765 much appreciated

[@puppiesarepower3682]

Is there any such thing as slim wood?

[@mountainbond1743]

I don’t think so haha

[@livefreeordie9542]

You're missing the best fatwood, You gotta dig up the roots, they're full of pitch.

[@mountainbond1743]

I’ll be sure to get after the roots next time!

[@jakedaly4637]

It's not sap it's resin

[@Man_Cave]

I know my GF found mine. Just say'n.

[@insaneprepper2832]

Nice score! You’ll have fire for YEARS with just that one log.

@@mountainbond1743The classic internet keyboard warrior am I right bro? Great video, was a bit of fun to watch! Gonna hope to score a piece that big!

[@theyearwas1473]

I don't see the point of your comment, their video showed how to find fatwood and it showed how easy it is to start on fire. The video set out to do exactly what it was supposed to and people in this comment section clearly learned. Just cuz you from the hills doesn't mean you got to act like it bud.
