Tinder

|
Tinder is the crucial middle link between a coal (such as
that produced by a bow drill) and actual
flames. Tinder is made from materials that catch a spark readily, or to
which a coal can be added, and which can
then be blown into a flame to actually start a fire.

Tinder tip from
Storm ... |
 |
If you are fortunate enough to find some
native sulfur, throw some sparks on it using percussion fire-making. It
will light without any further assistance. Just don’t absent-mindedly
inhale the fumes as I did! |
