Haha didn't know about this channel. Saw a lighter side of you. I'm still smiling . You do have a sense of humor. Good times Ben!

Thanks for the great information, I had my first search for fatwood yesterday, found a few small pieces, but will look again

Thanks for showing how to find fat wood and telling people to keep their head up!

Yes many times I have struck out on good quality Fat wood, but these are some great tips to give out.

I've not been successful finding fatwood in wild yet. With these tips I might be successful next trip out. And your humour is lifting... That bird! Lol!!! So thanks on both fronts 👍

Nice video with good info, and you seem like a Top chap. Stay safe buddy.

I hope you have better luck than I in making shavings in advance. Even when I vacuum sealed the bag, after a week or so the fatwood had lost it's "magic" of burning after a pass or two of a fero rod. Other people have reported the same results. Just make sure and try making shavings, let it set for a week or so and try lighting it before going on a trip. When left in stick form fatwood lasts for many years. A piece I have has been outside in the snow, rain, heat, etc. for 5 years and when I scrape some in a pile, one or two strikes with a fero rod and I have flame. I just keep a few sticks with me. Thanks for a well done video, and keep on hunting!

Love it. Beautifully shot. nice humor. very informative. Love the bit about mental well-being in the outdoors.

Keep up the great work, I appreciate it!

Thank you for showing how to find fatwood and how to process it

Great work on video mate greetings from spain 👍👍

Fat wood is so hard to find in Canada. Great video thanks for sharing man.

Just subbed to ur channel, so good to know the wonderful people from where we came are out scouting the woods for fatwood etc. Being from English German & French descent i love keeping up on what my peeps over there are up to. Seems yall find the cool stuff first. Thanks for sharing the info & all.

The best therapy is to talk, the second one is getting out into the grate outdoors, the third is finding fat wood. Cheers.

Great video and very informative, thanks for sharing. I too suffer pretty badly with my mental health and I agree 100% the best thing to help is getting out and about. Something so calming about being in the woods and nature. All the best bud, thanks

Great video!

Finally i know where to get it now, my Girlfriend always asks for Fat Wood, and i have to tell her not here ! 😕

Decent looking bit of fatwood. 👍

I'm just getting into bushcraft and searched how to source fat wood. Thanks for your great help Ben.

hi buddy just subcribed to your channel keep up the good work and stat safe

Birds don't just sing as mating calls but also to establish dominence over teritory, so it's proplem is actually your presence there 😂

Just found your channel with looking for help on this topic & you have yourself a new sub 😀 Take care & Stay safe my friend 🙂🙏👍

Great video, thanks!

I like that... _"Shut up bird! Shut up!"_ Hey... I talk the the animals, birds, etc. Keeps me sane and feeling like someone is there. I have a camp not far in the woods by my place where there's a grouse that shows up most visits. She likes bugging me a little, so to do my work, I have a stick with roots on it (looks like a claw) to keep her pushed back, so she won't lunge at me. She does eventually go away from me to eat and take care of her feathers, etc, then finally leaves the area. I do talk to here as if she's a person. Helps keep me calm and not go insane. Keeping her pushed back and talking to her helps me avoid killing her. She is a beauty and almost like having a friend around to keep me company.

Good video mate

Really good, interesting & informative video 👏 very good for a beginner for me (I hope to find some or my first fatwood verysoon 🤣) after watching your video 😀 Take care & Stay safe my friend 🙂🙏👍

I've seen videos where they say the fatwood is near the base (stump area) of the tree, but I found it half way up a tree in the core of the trunk of a tree that fell over in a big storm over a year ago.

Im new here on your channel!! love it!! Your are doing some good stuff here!

Another great video! Really enjoying this channel! Keep it up and you'll be doing a colab with MCQ for sure ;) Massive kudos for talking about mens mental health, its a very important matter that does not get anywhere near the attention it should do. Stay safe

Thanks for your help through these mentally challenging winter lockdowns I have achieved personal goals with thanks to this video. 👍

Nice score on the Fatwood.

Good video. On the hunt tomorrow. 👍

this was an informative video mate, great content as always! stay at it buddy, and keep grinding, you'll make it someday! 10:36 it almost look like a piece of beef jerky great piece of wood.

like the new channel pal

Really good film, very well done and nice finds.

top-notch content on such a small channel. Youll be huge one day with consistency for suuuure

My friend u are exactly right , the tree does protect itself from insects and fungi with sap (terpene), why else would the tree produce this compound to the damaged area. Trees are smarter than we understand, study the venus flytrap plant then i bet u will agree. Thanks for the video. Also did u know pine needle tea has the complete vitamin c complex and has 4 times the amount of vit. C than an orange? Great tree.

Great tips new sub mate..

I was on our worked bog today taking bark from exposed tree trunks for tannin dye. They would have been part of pine forests a few thousand years ago. Now I'm wondering if fatwook survives in bogs!

Fat wood arrrhhh yeah! All I know is my family will always be eating

You have my sub - lets be YT friends

do douglas fir trees produce good fat wood? i wasn't successful today, was hoping to find more.

Not gonna lie but I’m pretty confident to say I’m the best adult treasure hunter in the world 😂😂😂

What is tree for fat wood? Thanks
