Note that this mini bowdrill is VERY small compared to my knife, and one would
think it wouldn't work -- hmmmm -- where's the
tension?
If you view the right hand side of the "mini bow" you
will see small holes. These small holes serve as my tension
system.
They work very well, and they allow for a smaller bow
to be used and keep as much tension on the bow as one would
want!
I have made many fires over the years with these kind of mini
bows.
Trust me, you can make these mini bows very very
small! |
