My survival precautions. Making a fire. (part 2)

Then you have to make a nest. Use grain or thread like cattail to light the coal. And then use dried leaves to cover it. You need to leave a hole in the nest to put the coal in. Next you have to make a bow. To make a bow, you need slightly bendable wood. Make the bow about 1.5-2 feet long, and tie a string or show lace to each end. It doesn't have to have much of a curve to it.

This is similar to what the bow should look like.

My survival precautions. Part 1

P.S. Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, I forgot to start doing my blog posts again.

I decided, to read up on how to survive in the wilderness and so I thought I would share the information I have gathered with you. Today I will teach you how to start a fire without matches or a lighter.

First, you need to find tinder. Anything that is dry, sinewy, and can catch on fire will do. Dried moss, and pocket lint are two good examples. Then you need to get "firewood". You need about 2 hand fulls of branches the size of toothpicks, about 3 hand fulls of branches the size and length of an unused pencil, and a lot of wood about the thickness of your arm. Try snapping dead branches off trees to use since any wood found on the ground, can be damp and won't light on fire easily.
