A quick vid showing one way to find and use natural tinder. Wood scrapings from a Red Maple branch.

Just used a regular Swiss Army Knife and a mini-firesteel (bought at firesteel.com). The penny in the vid is just to show size reference.

I purposely left this vid un-edited to show typical effort involved.
