Self-ignition catapult bolts?
#10
Quote:(Sorry to spoil a good story! :wink: )

Not at all, I like the simple solution.

Quote:I have made fire by friction with a "fire-bow" and board, but it's a) not at all like you see in the movies, and b) not as easy as it sounds. You really don't make fire, though, just a glowing ember that can be blown against tinder to make a fire.

I know this from experience, I have given up after 15 fails.
