A summary

As part of the FSA conference 2024.
During this workshop participants will learn how to select and source suitable materials to make an effective bow drill set. This will include the best properties for each part of the Bow drill set and the most effective types of wood or cordage to use to make the bow, string, spindle, bearing block and hearth board. Learn about how ergonomics effect how efficient a bow drill set will be. We will then go on to use a variety of tools to create our own bow drills set each to take home and use.
