Looks good to me also, but would you consider a title change to something like 'Starting a fire with a bow' or something?

Otherwise, I'd say let's get it in the Edited Guide already!

Oh,smiley - sadface I really like the title. The Bow Drill is what the thing is actually called, plus I like the idea of 'no matches'.

However, I could change it to 'Making fire without matches: The Bow Drill' - would you be happy with that? I think it's not quite so nice as the original title, but if it makes it clearer, I would amend it.smiley - smiley

Or even 'Matchless Firemaking: the Bow Drill', or (and less nicely) 'Primitive Firemaking: the Bow Drill'.

What do others think?

No response on the title? If and when it's chosen, perhaps the Sub would like to talk to me about the title if it's felt to be a problem?

I like the original title- eye-catching and explainitory.
