What makes a good material for kindling or firewood?
to fire with a flint and steel striker
expected, mean real stone and steel and ferro (metal match), as these are completely different things, who suspects that means ferro, so here we go. tinder: moss dry (that is the least spread in a dust) birch bark (scrape the outer layer (white or silver side, no orange or brown) to a soft powder spongy) fatwood (inner layer of dead stumps of conifers such as pine and spruce, full of resin, which must be powdered to be a tinder) cattail / reed fluff (like than gasoline when even a spark strikes) to work correctly, you must do a lot of refined (as is, without spraying, etc) and make a hole tinder shallow in the stack, then put his fine (powder or otherwise) tinder in the hole, you now have what we call a "bird's nest" because it really can use an old bird nest and dry for this. then you need to make the structure of wood, wood is basically small pieces of dry wood are easy to light, but not flammable as to be illuminated by the front of the fire, which basically make a lot of small wood, branches, etc. and make as if it were a haven for bird's nest to fit. Now light the tinder refined striker and take the pile of tinder to light and unrefined foldthe tinder around the burning wick, and blow gently to really begin when you have a reasonable call refined from the tinder, gently push (yes, weird huh?) under the structure of wood and be ready to feed more and larger timber too early to start a coal seam, you should have a good pair of strokes (greater then the thumb around) the prepared wood. here are some instructional videos to help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98kXym5hBXI&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMxv43ctIU4&feature=related
