10 Ways To Fire Roll... Vertical Fire Rolling, Using Asphalt, And More

I get off to a slow start with the first 2 ignitions as I get used to using different boards. I've only ever used those 1x6s that I started with several months ago. But.... I get the hang of it and the last 8 ignitions are well worth the wait. You'll see me fire roll vertically on the bark of a living Birch tree and try asphalt. It all turned out very nicely as I try 10 different ways to roll fire rolls. Please SUBSCRIBE at the end of the video. Thanks!

Very informative. It don't even matter if the surface is entirely dry or not.

Succeeded with my first fire roll today. 90° and 90% humidity. It finally worked when I doubled the fatness of the rolls over what you use. Thanks for the guidance.

cool man ...this is a neat trick ! whoever first invented this technique is genius !

David, I watched the video where you used the fibers of a yucca plant and dried them out to use on your fire roll. I've seen you use ash/charcole and rust. Do you have any videos where all your material you used were in the woods? What could you use in place of ash/rust if your out on the wild? pulverized stone dust? I've tried doing the fire roll but it keeps falling apart when I roll it. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Nice, I didn't think you were going to be able to get one started off the stump. I figured it would have been too wet but you proved me wrong. Although I don't know the weather conditions over the last few days.

Cool to see so many surfaces that work. A lot of poison ivy next to that stump. You just taught me what a beech tree looks like. We have them here, but I never knew what they were.

I have tried this, and love it, I have been working with 1/2 cotton ball, and ash/charcoal, im at about 85% rate. about to go to 1/3 cottonball. made a base board it is 8 x 6 x 1 1/2
and have 3 holes drilled into it on the side, and 2 on one side. Each i have inserted a cigar tubes 2 that holds extra cotton balls, and one on the other that holds ashes. For weight i made it out of cedar and using 18 table saw blades and a bolt i ran it back and fourth to ruff it up a bit.

who would dislike this ?? great vid I will have to give the fire roll one more try.

[kiusau]

Have you done it between river stones?

[Maxdes]

Whats the best thing to use if i cant find cotton ? Say i have literally NOTHING !

[colonelchimp]

i really gotta try this fire rolling thing i love it, sorry but i missed what you were putting inside the rolls looked like mag powder, can ya just let this dummy know thanks, keep it up, never knew there were so many ways to get a friction fire going, and there ya are showing us all, good work my friend, thanks,

Fule ➕ heat ➕ o2 =🔥
Simplely amazing every time it happens

[dawnferguson]

I don't understand how when you put ash on your fire rolling boards it won't make it glaze up making it slicker.

[twhite]

Would charcoal ashes work for fire rolls?

[julieclemons]

What is the purpose of the wood ashes? Is potassium a catalyst? Is it a higher degree of friction?

[OldNavajoTricks]

You can never have enough methods to light a fire,
beside a blade edge, I rank fire as the single most important survival priority.

[ropeyarn]

This proves that the heat generated is internal to the roll, and using the ash insulates the friction generated heat from the rubbing cotton fibers.
