    I was buying a seat/kneeling/ prep pad in the gardening section at home depot for less than $6 (a much lower quality, thinner, heavier one was on amazon for almost $30). as I was passing the lumber dept, I smelled the beautiful scent of pine. I took a look n found 5'x2"x2" pieces of raw, fatwood laden pine for .97 cents each. well that was a no brainer. i bought 2 n I've been carving 'fatwood slabs' on paracord for myself n my friends when I'm not busy. it's fun, functional and it cost me 0.97 n some paracord I had laying around. it's crazy to spend $10 for a tiny piece of wood, then wait for it to be delivered so you can go into the WOODS and use it. I even felt s little guilty buying it from home depot but at 0.97 I couldn't resist and it's so much fun being able to do something outdoorsy during the times when I can't get out to the country. this vid is spot on AND I learned a new knot. peace

    I just made one of these yesterday. In Ky., fatwood is all over the place, so I can always harvest it myself. I put a keychain ring thru the fatwood and attached a striker and fero rod on paracord which can be easily taken off. A piece of Ranger Band holds it all together. Even without a knife, I can start a fire. I can't imagine buying something I can make and have fun making it. Great topic and nicely done video. Thanks!

    I will never look at punky wood the same. 🤗 Neat knot and one more to learn.
    Not many pine trees around here except for cultivated ones.
    That means no stumps but I do collect sap from them for glue. I will take a walk in the forest but it looks to be all hardwoods.

  • @iliyantomov9307
    @iliyantomov9307 5 років тому

    Thank you, Corporal, for the straight-to-the-point info on where to look for fatwood! I saw a local wood mill once, scrapping pieces of pine material that looked just like that in color, were not good for planks. You can take as much as you like for free. One man's trash can be another one's treasure if you can't find time going into the woods but still want to make some cool stuff for yourself and your buddies. Cheers!

  • @shadomane
    @shadomane 6 років тому +1

    Not to take away from Corporals video, but just to add another source of fatwood if you don't have access to an area with pine and don't want to buy fatwood. Keep your eye open for pallets made of pine. Many times I have spotted a board or two in the pallet that was either solid fatwood or had a significant enough streak of fatwood through it to be able to process and get a few and at times several pieces of fatwood worthy of stringing on a lanyard.Thanks for the video Corporal. Good to go!

    What I do is I take the paper from otc meds, layer the paper 8 layers, soak in water overnight. Next day I roll it up and tie each end with string. It makes a four-inch long paper log. So in addition to the portable tinder I have portable paper logs that has a slow burn. Thanks for the tip on the tinder! Semper Fi! Hooah!!

  • @carlrooker
    @carlrooker 3 роки тому

    I have already made one of these, but for emergency use I have added a ferrocerium rod. Simply made a groove in the side of the fatwood, and used "Goop" to glue the ferocerium rod to it. Normally I would use a lighter, but sometimes the lighter doesn't work.

    Great video! I have that little Mora too. I love it. Great little knife. For people who can't identify fatwood for whatever reason, you can buy a giant box of it from Rural King for 10 bucks. Better than 10 bucks for one little piece of fatwood.

  • @johnchastain4351
    @johnchastain4351 7 років тому +1

    Great video. In the Southeast where I live, I was able to find nice pieces of fat wood that were 4 to 6 inches long at the base of a branch where it meets the trunk of a dead and down pine tree. So with a heavy machete and laplander saw it was easier than you show in your video. I debarked the pieces with my knife before I left the woods. I also tested it not just by smell, but I also made sure shavings would take a flame quickly with a lighter. I was able to collect 6 pieces from one tree that were worth taking home. i think I will use your stocking stuffer idea.

    They are liquidating that wood at a local store. Its from the base of pinus montezumae trees.
    You get several for about forty cents each. They say the wood is eighty percent resin. Sure I am going to grab them in the meantime. But learning to harvest it myself is the true gain. The wealth of knowledge. Besides any excuse for going in the woods is enough for me.🤗
