Bow-drill Divot already there...?

[chiral.grolim]

I've never tried bow-drill ignition techniques, but wondered if the normal brass-tubing in micarta'd rats suffice as a divot for a cone-shaped head on a bow-drill. The brass should reduce friction...

Anybody ever dried to use their rat for bow-drill fire-starting?

I didn't use a Rat, it was my Team Gemini but it worked really well!!

Yeah, the tube fasteners work just fine. Both brass, & stainless versions.
