A quick vid using a small bow drill set. I'm experimenting with working with smaller bow drill sets.
Bow is made from a vine (~9"), bowstring is nylon twine, fireboard is Cconut Palm, spindle is a Horseweed stalk (~4"), hand-hold is a rock with a dimple.
I have a small hand-hold made of Oak, but I couldn't find it. So, I used the rock instead to make this vid for a bushcraft web forum.
