How to find and process fatwood 2022.

A short video on how to find and process fatwood, Where to look, What to do once you find some and how to use it. Regardless of what you call it, fatwood still comes from the same place – pine trees. While this isn’t the only source, it is the most common one. It is, however, possible to harvest fatwood from a few other resinous spruce or conifer trees and even some types of cedar. Fatwood has been used for generations to start fires and provide a source of light. If you took a trip back in time to the 1500s to 1600s and visited a member of the Rappahannock Tribe in Virginia, you’d find their “huts were lighted by the means of ‘fatwood,’… stuck into a gourd bowl partly filled with clay.” These days, we’re more likely to get light from one of the best survival headlamps, but when it comes to making a fire, it’s difficult to hold a torch to fatwood’s flammability. Fatwood comes from the heartwood of pine trees. When a pine tree is chopped down or dies a natural death, the sap and resin flow down into the remaining stump. Both the sap and resin contain high concentrations of natural turpentine, which is highly flammable. So, if you’re trying to figure out how to start a fire without matches or a lighter, using fatwood is one of the most effective approaches. Even when there’s snow on the ground, the pine tree stump will remain dry so, you can start a fire with fatwood even in the depths of winter, Enjoy thank you for watching.....
