- Soda Can Solar Ignition, Roadside Can Search, Polishing, Aiming, 5 Interesting Ignitions & Fires. I like videos that show an entire process from beginning to end and all the details in between. This one begins with the standard Intro... Then, a trip just down the road to look for cans, which includes a surprising find. Then onto details about polishing can bottoms, how to achieve perfect aim at the Sun, and lastly, I demonstrate 5 fairly different and interesting examples of solar igniting char cloth. Come see how it all turned out. Please SUBSCRIBE at the end of the video. Thanks!
*** Time was, with weak solar igniters like these, you could only ignite charred materials... but if you also have some wood ashes, you can saturate any tinder with the ashes and it will become a great coal extender. And, as I've shown many times in the past, that coal extender itself can be brought to flames... So now, with ashes and this humble polished soda can bottom, you can ignite ANY natural fiber that will burn.
... I keep trying to drive that point home... the significance of ashes impregnated tinders. It changes everything!!! NOW, you can go from a very weak spark, ember, or ignition source all the way to flames.

Yea I tried the chocolate polishing...no luck.
You can buy 2 parabolic cigarette lighters on AMZ for $6.99. Many years ago, always carried one in my tackle box to light up in seconds and still carry one with my SHTF and camping gear.. Even has an attached foldout holder at focal point.
Nice!
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl Should have added that I haven't smoked in years. Only use them as fire starters.
Hey David you know that food That you think about Other than fire And possibly Salivate overWell When you enjoy Food intensely You're serotonin levels Are elevated That would be you Feeling high Just saying
Should have thrown the bud light can back to the ground where you found it.
lol!
What kind of witchcraft is this? This guy is amazing! Thanks for sharing.
LOL! Give it a try. It's easy!
You are the MAN David! Started my 1st bamboo fire the other day.
Beer bread is awesome. 1 can beer, 2 cups self rising flour, 3 Tbsp white sugar. Mix together and bake in greased pan for 30 minutes at 375°.
Too beer bitter for me. Yuk!
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl It was just a thought. I don't drink beer either and found the bread to be good. The alcohol is destroyed by baking so you get no effect from it. Anyway I really enjoy your videos and watch often. Keep up the good work!
Very cool or should I say hot. I enjoy and learn from your very detailed video examples, much thanks. G.
Have you done a video using a fire piston?
No, don't like them.
In colonial times, American backwoods men carried small brass tin (~Altoids) with char cloth, flint, steel striker (mini brass knuckles), & glass lens set into detachable lid.
(One hundred years before matches).
That newspaper is bad-ass tinder. I hoard the stuff to light my stove.
Now I will retry the can trick using your method. I tried polishing with toothpaste, and did not know the finger in the focal point trick so will try again with metal polish and knowing better where to aim. Thanks, love your channel.
Toothpaste will not get it shiny enough either.Wear shades, please.
You seem like a cool guy and I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge to help me be more prepared for a survival situation if I were to ever find myself and my family in one.
Always interesting !
Another bit of magic there mate 😉👍
You make it look so easy
Nice!
Amazing, the fire whisperer does it again👍🏻
Thanks for the quick reply, I am a wilderness survival teacher and would never tell my students that something will work unless i have done it myself and know for a fact that it will, so I will be trying it. I have another question though. What could be used to polish the can that would be readily available in nature? Have you tried ashes to polish with? I am thankful for your videos, they give lots of new ideas about ways to get fire and save me a lot of time trying to figure it out on my own. You are a huge help. I am a big fan of your channel.
Nothing natural or that you might have in your pack will makeit shiny enough. Metal polish is all that works. Check out my solar ignitions playlist.
for the first time in months lol I have been able to get ignition within 30 seconds rather than 15 to 20 minutes,I went and got some of the same polish and thanks to this video I don't have panic attack anymore lol I can actually do it now lol
It shines that can bottom so fast too. I originally bought it to polish off the cloudy build up on my headlights. I saw a video that recommended it for that. A couuple of years later I got the idea to try it on the can... and the rest is history. Thanks!
Hi, mind to tell the polishing name? Thanx

I tried polishing with ashes, it didn’t work all that well.
Metal polish is all that works. Nothing natural will get it shiny enough.
thanks,I appreciate your help
Will this work with with cloth and ashes?
Yes. I have the video in my ashed tinder playlist.
I am curious, I wonder if one could use ashes to polish the can in a survival situation. Very nice video thank you.
A common question. Nothing natural or that might be in your pack will shine it enough
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl thank you, my wife and sons are really enjoying your videos. Thank you very much. We are astonished by what you do and are excited to try your technique this spring. I'm sure we will need a lot of practice, we are sure we can do it. Appreciate you and your clean informative channel.
Good video David interesting
Solar collector + solar projector = solar concentrator
I had just watched your plastic water bottle fire start so does salt water work when using ashes and tender ?
Clear liquids work. Salt water, vinegar, vodka, etc.
David: Could you find natural materials to polish the bottom of the can? Maybe dirt, clay or something like that. You might not have polish in an emergency situation.
It would be nice, but no.
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl u can use ashes or charcoal powder. I've tried it and it worked!
Does this method work with sea water or salt water ?
Like char cloth can we make char paper.
A dollar bill didn't work but paper towel did. Please find my videos on them.
Can you ignite the paper with the can without the charcoth?
fitz201000 No. Focal point is not hot enough. Check out my current video for another option.
@@DavidWestBgood2ppl thanks
This is useful. You must have buddies in the military if they are polishing with chocolate. Maybe avoiding the contents helps you to think more clearly (-:
No. There's people on UA-cam that recommend chocolate and toothpaste... doesn't get it shiny enough.
How about using toothpaste?
Won't work.
Amazing! But what if you don't have a store around? To clean the bottom of can. Spit?
You're outta luck... no good polishes in nature.
Beer is 99% image and only 1% beer
Isee what you're saying. I agree.
11:30 Hates the taste of beer??
Just dump a free roadside find like that??
Unsubscribing for gross violation of scavenger's code.
I think we might be leaving bush craft and heading into pyromaniac
Will toothpaste work to polish the cans?
They say it will... let me know if it works. Thanks!
