Nice job Josh! I think kids & newcomers need to see more videos like this to help them ease into things and make them realize that you can keep things simple.

I could watch this channel all day.....oh wait I do. Calm voice, shows everything to be learned clearly. I would be a student of his any day.

Experimented with various weights of cotton fabric to make char cloth. Fine cotton like gauze or wife beater shirt is easiest to catch a spark (lots of air around the carbon) and hold a spark but burns relatively fast. Flat jean material works but was worst to light, holds ember long time. What was awesome was rolling jean material tightly to thickness of cigar, and charring that. Cut 3/4" off the log and place on end to catch spark. You can blow this into a big hot ember that you won't have a problem lighting tinder from.

I already know how to make char cloth but clicked on this video anyways because I like the way you teach. That's what I love about green berets, all of y'all are some of the most sincere and thoughtful teachers on the planet.

Best explanation of char cloth and making it in my humble opinion, thanks 👍.

Char cloth is really fun to use when I'm out playing woods man.

Once I figured out how I went on a char cloth binge, is so cool a sunglass lights it up in seconds

Thank you. I plan to make some tomorrow for the first time.

Just made my first charcloth using your instructions! Your instructions are the most thorough! Especially on when it's done. Everyone else just assume that you would naturally know when it's done. Thank you so much!
-
Good stuff Ace. Thank you.

Haha the material explaination made me laugh, about the type of material. You're a true person willing to help others. The M material.
-
You are an excellent teacher

Coulda used one of those squares to patch the jeans 😂

I have seen a couple of videos on making char cloth. I have to say this was by far superior. I gave so much more information. Excellent job. 👍🏻
