I just discovered your channel last night. Finished watching them all just now. They are the best bushcraft videos I've seen. Very informative without having the typical 25 minutes of rambling. Not to mention you have a FANTASTIC collection of blades. I look foward to seeing more of your work.

Very impressive skills Brian! For anyone that hasn't been to - or lived in the Pacific Northwest - friction fires are extremely difficult due to the humidity, wet materials and constant rain. I have never been successful at it. Brian you have given me the spark I needed.

"Another big factor here is the multiple wraps around the spindle. This keeps the cordage from slipping, which abrades it and will lead to it breaking eventually. Tilting the bow so that the cordage doesn’t run over itself is just as necessary." I'll put a big amen to that and also add by pulling tension on the loose end with your fingers you control the tension to get just as much as necessary to further protect your cordage. There is a lot going on in this demonstration that the novice would not see. I like the "Eskimo strap drill because of all the things listed above. I have yet to find a method that is as cordage friendly as the strap drill. Your method shown here is very close however. Always enjoy your video's NW and there are few that can even come close to your level of expertise. Believe me I've searched them all.

Good to know about doubling thin cordage over, I tend to make thinner cordage overall and hadn't thought about using it this way. Can't seem to make a good thick cordage for the life of me, but keep trying. Have been eyeing a batch of thistle and will try the thin cordage doubled over to see if I have better luck, thanks NWP!

Same double up method I use bud. I do the same for long thin roots and bark. Just fold in half with a knot and use the thumb loop to tension with multi wraps. If I have 2roots I tie knots in both ends and use the same. Good effort dude. Oh and quick...............sunbathe..... it won't last forever this no rain business.............

Great to see more natural cordage bow drills, they look trivial when you do it. :) I have been getting into natural cordage bow drill more and more latley and I keep breaking the ropes. If I try multiple wraps on the spindle They rub on each other. Do you have any tips for when using multiple wraps on the spindle? I have been tilting the bow, as I read in some other video of yours, but often times I still rub the rope together and it causes it to brake.
@nwprimate64165 жыл бұрын
Do you have one end of the cordage wrapped around your hand instead of having both tied to the bow? This really helps me control tension.
@bushcraftsurvivalslovenia52415 жыл бұрын
@@nwprimate6416 I tie both ends. I have tried wrapping the cordage around my hand but I found it too hard to keep the tension without really hurting my hand. I don't know maybe I'm just not wrapping it good enough around my hand or what? but I guess I'll have ot practice this more. Thanks

When you say tilting the bow, do you mean along the long axis, or the plane defined by the bow and the cord (i.e., the short axis)?
@nwprimate64165 жыл бұрын
Great question! I mean either either tilting the tip (where the cordage is attached) at an angle either toward the ground or toward the sky, so that the cordage spreads itself out over the spindle. 🙂
