Oak Bracket Fungus: Fire Rolling And Solar Igniting beinggoodtopeople 2024-10-19 | I struggled to fire roll the Oak Bracket Fungus because I was using I flimsy bottom board (sawhorse) (log) and a shirt slick top board.

My Hand Drill Spindle Tips Rarely Glaze. Treated Fireboard? beinggoodtopeople 2022-10-15 | I used wood from a broken down and rotted out split rail fence for my hand drill fire board.

Not getting any friction or dust, I knew that all I had to do was cut away the glazing from the tip and start over. LOL! On the next try the tip glazed right over again.
