Just watched this, and thought that looks very do-able.

I know I've made incense for over forty years now, but seeing other folks do it, hear about their mixes, can be interesting :D

It honestly looks as though that was all m packed into his mix. The resin in the pine scales and the oils in the peels ought to be enough to bind the mix with a little pressure (his moulds).

I do use pine resins but I hadn't thought to grind up pinecones to use as a base.

If you light one of them they can act like a coal from a firebow and allow you to make flame reliably. It's a slow just sitting there hot, sort of thing.
Works very well with mugwort.
