So how small can you go?

Here's my smallest that I have gotten a coal from (4 actually): <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

The bow is roughly 6"

So anybody else got a Mini-Bow? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Nice Dingo, I've tried a bowdrill a couple of times with no luck. Andy did you have any luck with the Egyptian bowdrill?

No, it needed some more shaping work, and I got distracted with it and on to other projects.
