You do live in FatWood heaven. I get excited when I know we’re going to camp in that area, knowing I’ll be bringing some home to play with, yes I’m a sick FatWood Junkie 😂👍
have done these several times and are great...I will often take two green sticks or flat rocks to put up top to put my pot on so it doesn't smoke as much and gets a little more air.
Definitely a great idea! I'd say there aren't really any videos on that because most people probably don't find fatwood of that size lol, usually you just see people just getting smaller pieces and using them. I've found tree sized rounds before lol, although its not as plentiful here as other places but I love me some fatwood. 😍🤣
I'm NoT trying to be a "keyboard" warrior or critical but in an actual SHTF scenario what benefits do you get from this style of fire then you would a regular campfire? Especially in a scenario where food and water could be limited and energy needs to be conserved? Seems like an awful lot of energy is used to build this.. I'm just curious to know because I don't know what the difference would be with the energy spent?
Just teaching bushcraft. Nothing to do really with that kind of scenario, all though there could be a time and place. Great way to cook bacon and eggs in a skillet and not have to do anything to the fire for a couple hours.
@@kyleharris3In this crazy world, it's on all of our minds from time to time. One thing I did notice, as it burned over the next three hours, it put up a very small amount of smoke compared to a regular fire. And its actually a lot easier to make when you are not trying to film everything, LOL! Thanks for watching!
