    Even the best struggle.

    I have watched Primitive Technology start fires with a hand drill so many times, he’s got it down pat.

      Primitive Technology can also select their tools for maximum gain. Apparently it’s relatively easy when you’ve got the right woods and kindling.

      When you’re somewhere in the wilds your wood might be too hard, too soft or too wet or whatever.

        Oh, of course. He’s very familiar with his area and the best materials to use, and has lots of practice. But he’s also pretty famous for showing his work without cuts, and I am always amazed with his hand drill skills. He’s got an ember in like twenty seconds.
