You’ve heard of people using a backhoe to dig up large fatwood stumps and trees and then pickup truck them back to the house. We’ve also heard of people collecting so many Pine Knots that they have no room left to store them. Even when their garage, utility building, under bed, linen closet, and baby's crib is full, they still go out looking for more. Why not utilize “Single Serving” fatwood? If you will? It’s readily available in many of the conifers and packed within their small dead branches. Just snap or cut them off close to the trunk and usually you'll find ample "Single Serving" fatwood. Plenty that will make even the most difficult kindlings go to flames. I’ve been turning these fatwood rich branches into mini fatwood torches to ignite kindling. Fact is, that's unnecessary. It would actually be easier to turn the branch into scrapings, shavings, batonings, and ferro rod ignite them. Lol! It’s just not as much fun! Please follow the LINKs to the 3 previous mini torch videos, and SUBSCRIBE. Thank You!

Hi David! The "single serve" fatwood technique is grand indeed. For me, building a fire is very satisfying. First, practicing a technique until I become accomplished feels good. This is something I know you appreciate. Secondly, any kind of focused task, wherein I know precisely what I am doing, gives me a break from intrusive thoughts. For this reason, I find folding my clothes, washing my dishes, dressing a planting bed, or making a fire very rewarding. Finally, I wanted to say "thank you" for including the extended burn sequence at the end of the video. I really enjoyed that.

That's one of my favorite parts. Not so with many others. They're just here to steal away with the ideas and have no love for... or respect of nature, at all. When I check my Analytics, I'll find that many people abandoned the video at first flames in that first segment and another 30% will leave when I start igniting the torch in the 2nd segment. Only 15% will watch to the end.

Nice video. I often get my shavings on top of a leaf. Light it up on top of kindling, and also get the match/ extender lit. Poke a couple of fatwood candles in there for wet conditions. Anything is possible with fatwood!

I've never done the fatwood torch, but it looks like a great method. Once we get some moisture in western nebraska I'll give it a try.

My skills are not good enough to identify the birds but my Merlin app on my phone thought it heard Northern Flicker and Eastern Phoebe at 12:30. The Merlin app agrees with you on the American Crow and Blue Jay IDs.

I went back and listened. The calls were mixed in with the Crow calls.

The torch technique may not be necessary but it’s another skill set to be aware of. Thank you for sharing.

Indeed. I can see using it when I need a precisely located and long lasting fire ball strategically placed into a fire lay.
