@outwithafinn: Using a firesteel: How to get a fire going? This was my first time igniting plain firewood with a firesteel. I usually use vaseline & cotton or bark from brich. But this time it was just wood. How? First I made very thin feathers to a stick, and a bunch of additional feather sticks to immediately feed the fire when I got it going. I noticed that the best way to get the sparks to the feathers without breaking the feathers is to put the fire steel against the stick on top of the feathers. After a few tries I had fire! #bushcraft #fireskill #survival #camping #forest #firestarting #wilderness #Outdoors #fire #bushcraftskills
