Subject: How To Make A Bow Drill (Fire Demo & Practice Guide)

One of the quintessential primitive survival skills is being able to light fires by rubbing sticks together.


Friction fire using a tool like bow drill can be incredibly inspiring to witness, and super rewarding to do it yourself!


So today I’m going to walk you through step-by-step how to make your first bow drill kit and get a fire started with it.


Click here to check it out!

Making a bow drill fire from scratch is a pretty big topic, so we’ll cover this in three sections:

  1. Constructing your first bow drill kit

  2. Using your bow drill kit to make fire

  3. How to practice so you gain true proficiency

If you’ve ever wanted to make fire by rubbing sticks together, this tutorial will help you get there!


I also shot a bunch of new videos showing how the fire is actually made and specific techniques for constructing key sections of your first bow drill kit. Some aspects of this project are just easier to show rather than explain so I think you'll find it helpful to see the entire process from start to finish.


This has been a long time coming and I'm super excited to share with you... So let’s dive in and learn how to make fire by rubbing sticks together!
