Bow Drill Variations


Two-Spindle Bow Drill

Special preview only on Wildwood Survival -- Not to be found anywhere else on the 'net!

This is a sneak preview of a unique two-spindle bow drill developed by Allan "Bow" Beauchamp. The details will be outlined here on this page at some point in the near future, after the article on this topic appears in Wilderness Way magazine.

From "Bow" ....
"Yes, the coal's formation is rapidly accelerated, but how? Well you'll have to wait for the article to find out! There's lots of advantages here in this system, lots of tricks. I'll put them in the article."
