hey guys it's tell with Oshawa bushcraft it is Friday September 7 Jordan and I are outside of the town of Newton Ville by doing a Scout on a new piece of land a landowner is letting us use out here and we're looking for a site that we use for bushcrafting this winter and while we were out here scouting along I came across this white birch behind us in a past video I started a fire uses white birch is tinder and I had the people ask me to do a better illustration for that I guess I kind of took it for granted that the average person wouldn't know you know you see diagram dunno better you've seen it reference referred to I've never actually seen it done so we're gonna take some of this and a little later when I get a chance and show you how to use it for tinder and how to process it down how to start it up this is a stuff laughter right here really light little tissue paper type stuff just falling off the trees we're not hurting the tree at all by doing this this stuff's just gonna fall right off anyway now we don't need to take an axe and split the bark right now to take it off we're not building the canoe out of this thing we just need to start a fire with it so this is gonna work great okay we're going to take this with us and I will start a fire stick around all right guys we're back Jordan I continued scouting and further down the road we found what we're pretty sure is an abandoned trailer park and this place is huge it's got a road system it runs through it all these old concrete pads where the trailers used to be and we thought this place is pretty cool some different resources here that we might normally find so we're gonna stop here for lunch because we're getting hungry I found some some old lumber here that I'm gonna use firewood just because I'm hungry now it was easy to get in it's dry and I'm gonna get this birch bark going here now what we're after the real stuff we want is to really really find one fly-half shredded up stuff you saw them pull off the tree finest stuff we could find are you come in on this now just like with any tinder no matter how good it is it's your processing that's really gonna get the job done so you can throw sparks at this we might be able to get it to go but it's tough door Gulino so we're gonna shred this stuff up as fine as we can without losing too much of it is either okay now we have all these tiny little fibers we can hit every one of them is another surface that a spark can take here we go I'm gonna get that goat with one spark okay there it is alright guys that was a using birch bark for tinder we're gonna get some lunch going here but uh for now thanks for tuning in this is dealt with Oshawa bushcraft and until next time get out here and have some fun guys YouTube will be here when you get back
