Hello, bushcraft UK folk. Having floundered hopelessly for some time, I swear I'm getting the hang of this bow drill business. True, still no ember, but I've switched from willow to sycamore and made my drill thinner and I can get smoke in a reasonable time. But the squeaking! It's so loud I swear the neighbours will call the police.
Now I know I'm letting self-consciousness thwart me, but surely the squeak is unnecessary, if not a sign that something's wrong.
Look forward to your advice! Many thanks
Jacob
