...Ey up firebugs !
.
...This week's #toptipsontuesdays is a tip for an alternative bow drill hearth that doesn't require cutting a notch.
.
...I got the idea off @nwprimate who called it the lazy mans hearth as it only requires a divot cutting near the edge of the board. The spindle should sit slightly over the edge  so the dust can form a pile underneath it.
.
...The full video is up on my YouTube & There's some interesting playlists with lots of great content  so head on over to check it out & please SUBSCRIBE.
.
...Enjoy the week ahead guys, stay safe and I'll catch ya soon
