I failed my last few tries with a bowdrill. Still need some practice with it. Actually, a lot.

Anyway, nice pics, thanks for sharing with us!

That looks like a great trail, and so close to home. Very cool.

Great photos! Thanks for sharing. What brand of knife is that?

If something in your pics were going to draw my attention to fatwood it would be something like the circled area of this one.

This might help you identify it.

Looks great Jozsef! Nice looking bow you made there!

It is a nice knife. I don't use to much because I have a few other bushcraft knife so switching them everytime.
