I

hmm

Oh

Oh

a switch in any survival is a few concepts that I employ with friction sets let's have a little talk alright so the first concept that I use with friction sets

that I carry two now reason that is is that once York it runs out all right once your kit runs out you need to be able to make a whole new kit and make a fire before you're unable to make fire again and that's a real problem this kid still has at least two more holes right but when i made this kit to book me on a birch okay same piece when I make kits basically what I do is I like to find dead standing things will it be you know birch dead stinkbert sapling or pine pine is amazing I really like using eastern white pine dead standing that's probably my favorite thing to use but basically I just bang out a quick kit you know try it out and if it makes me number all right and make the fire if I'm gonna make one over the cases but then I cut out a second piece and I can i can fill all this one up all over again and I burn it in and make sure it works I make an Amber auditor okay so whenever I make a bow drill kit this is with all friction sets this is this can be handled as well all right whenever I make a friction set okay I make one that's successful I pick up the same piece of wood that I just made the first one out of and I make a second I go through the same process burn it out making an ember notch everything ready to go makes a number it makes a fire now I'm good to go now I have this but when this starts getting low what completely runs out okay so by doing that I always ensure that I have you know one full kit that's untouched that I know is successful it's not just a heart then i'm pretty sure it's going to work it's from the same piece of wood yadda yadda know I know it works I already made fire with it once see I'm saying I want to meet fire with it once so again real quick very easy concept if you make a kit and the piece of wood that use is successful let's go pick up the same piece of wood and bang out another kit now you get to now you only use one only use one okay you know this one works let's get it beautiful that's insurance that's you know you you can relax its weight off your shoulders one last thing you have to worry about you know it works right so you keep them together in your rucksack and you obviously know what spindle goes with which and all that stuff right and very simple you know you just take the kit put off to the side and you keep using the same kit over and over and over until it's until this one's used up now once this one gets used up you're going to start using this one right the moment that happens go find another kit go make another kit because you have all these embers before you have to find another piece of wood that can make a successful kit okay because sometimes it doesn't work the first time or sometimes it'll take six hours other times it works the first time it takes you a half hour to carve it and within 40 minutes of choosing the dead standing tree you have an ember and you tend to bundle blowing into flame you know it can be a half hour or it can be ours alright so that's the first concept all right two kits make them at the same time you burn in you burn them both in make a number out of each so you know that they both work when one is finished all you got to do is drop back to the second one you have that whole kit to use up before you can find another

another source of Bulger would that that will work for you all right so hand roll kits okay same deal I carry two right so one runs out I got plenty of room I can just bang out more Andrews but I have gives me that extra time to find more wood that will work before you know the clock has run out and I need to make a kit now or I'm going to be cold tonight or not billable my water today or whatever the case is now there's another concept with hand drill kits want to talk about real quick you might notice that this side is pretty much filled up okay now to stop this this kit from getting landlocked all I do is I take my knife and I just cut right behind so now the edge of my would you know will look like say he'll end here so all this is gone and now Mike it's just a little bit thinner and then I can just go about my business and make martyrs so with hand roll it's a little different you can't use a bow drill but with hand drill because it's so small you know normally you just do sale here and then you would do all here and then your kits are done you know you can't fit any more with us a whole bunch in the middle you can put in so instead so they're not landlocked my embers on land locked I can't can get two more material I just cut this right off and that opens up a whole fresh edge to bang out all those embers again you know I can usually get to embers out of each hole so there's a lot of fires in here and I have two of them right came from the same piece of wood okay so your clock runs out you need to go find more friction suitable woods to make sets to make fire right well here's a third concept that i use on friction sets okay this is my hand hold for my bow drill right and holes aren't really material dependent they can we made out of anything right they don't create the friction so the pretty irrelevant bows and handholds are completely irrelevant in the equation the spindles and the hearts are what you know makes the fire however if I find some wood that does work I make all my pieces out of my kid out of it like this hand hold this hand hold is the same piece of pine that made these hand roll kids it's the exact same piece see that what does that mean well that means when I run out of this I have an emergency with me emergency to hand-roll kits with me at all times and it's multi-purpose my hand hold my bow drill and all I got to do to take my knife split it right down the middle I can get two kits out of it just like this

so that there's actually still a little bit extra right here so I mean just like that you can see that there's two to hand-roll kits in that all I got to do is split it right down the middle and clean it up you know split it down the middle clean up the edges and this is basically what I'm looking at right so that's a third concept that I use with friction sets all right now let me show you my bow drill kit I just banged one out yesterday even though I didn't need it are they up to and my rock all the time I banged one out just for practice you know it's been then maybe three weeks since I made a bow drill kit and I'd like to go too long before i make kits i just like to make kids a lot but uh i'm gonna show you my kid and i made yesterday i was hanging out my family and we're just at my dad's house hanging out by the pool and you know my daughter was swimming and all that right hanging out family and I don't know I just felt like making a kick so i made this pine kit that's standing pine i posted the pictures that I my camera with me I posted the pictures from my phone on to new survival facebook go ahead and check that out love the way it smells there's a ton of members i can get out of here i got one out and as you can see it's just just short of halfway so i can get to embers out of each hole you know and i can fit two more on this side and you know maybe three four five six seven at least eight probably on the other side you know that's that's like 20 members pretty awesome but what I want to talk about is what I was just mentioning about all my pieces being made out of bow drill wood or excuse me or friction would

there's my hand hold that I made okay how's my hand hold this is made out of the same thing that kids made out of so if I use this as my new hand hold I fellows to my rock and I stopped running out of bow drill kits I need to make a new one well if I had to I could just repurpose this handhold into a hearth or a spindle you know boom is my spindle you know for my heart so i can replace one of these with the same wood this is made out of i know it's good stuff right there second thing is the bow it's my bow i used exact same thing it was a dead standing pine i made the whole kit that same sapling that makes the successful would my bow is made out of it well it's not too hard to see that there's definitely no spindle in there and plenty of room for another heart so I can make a whole new kit with just my bow I can get Bulls any way I can pick up junk you know doesn't matter i can just pick up any wood that of any type you know entire string to it as long as it's about this long it doesn't matter if you stray can be curved who cares you be daddy can be alive it's irrelevant you know bow and handholds are completely irrelevant you know they're nothing you know they're what you pick up on the way out and you you know you keep this in your rock but the thing is is that if you decide to carry a handhold and a bow carry out of the same material that made your kit and guess what when your clock runs out on your kits oh man i need to make another kit you know I was really procrastinating I went through both kits I should have made another one oh man oh that's okay I know this stuff's bomber okay I'll just whip up a quick hit get a new bulb rocking and rolling right ok so it's three concepts pretty simple you know just carry two kits that way gives you a longer amount of time another kit to fall back on so your your clock is longer before you have to make another kit and second is don't get landlocked on hand drills you know you just carve off the edge give yourself a fresh edge to make ambriz awful and the last concept is make your your your insignificant pieces of your bow drill kit out of the bow drill wood so that way you can repurpose your you're a bow or your bearing block your hand hold to be more parts another hearth board or another spindle and hearth board over the cases you can make new kits out of what you already have on you alright well swim in a survival appreciate your views comes in sport to the next one ticket
