Very nice...

My buddies and me have tried the "bow drill" method several times. Seems like we spend an hour looking for the proper length of wood, then the perpefect hand piece. Then spend another hour carving it out just right only to spend two hours of sweating trying to produce a spark. No fire yet, but like you say, it's the accomplishment that we are trying for.

How long did it take you to carve all that?

Sometimes we make a game of it and put in real world situations pretending that we have a limited time to build it. We will keep on trying.
