Fatwood – Part 2: Matchstick Tinder Box
DIY, Family, Fire January 26th, 2010There are tons and tons of fire starters out there that you can use but none quite as good as fatwood. It’s long burn time, natural waterproofing and easy availability (at least in the southeastern US) make it the ideal fire starter. Put together a simple tinder box and you are set.
By the way, this is my first video if you hadn’t noticed.

Chris-
Great first video–nice opening, clean editing, and concise explanation. This is a very interesting fire-starting technique and I will give it a try for sure!
