How To Make A Wooden Bowl With Fire

There are a lot of benefits in knowing how to make this container. As long as you can get fire, you can get a useful item almost anywhere. There are many more things you can do with this than just boil water and I will talk about that in future posts. Boiling water and holding it is one of the most important things you need when out in the bush and this is one way of taking care of that priority.


Then put mud or clay around the edge to keep the fire from burning where you don't want it to.






After building a fire that has substantial coals, place a hot coal in the middle and start to burn out the center.


You can use a hollow reed or tube to blow on the hot coals to help in burning out the wood.


 Continue this process until you reach the depth your looking for.



Notice the makeshift chopsticks are used to grab the hot coal.




This is turning into a great hand warmer!

When finished, use a rock to scrape out the charcoal from the inside.



Finished bowl is now holding water.



A container can go a long way in its usefulness out in the wild. This bowl is perfect all kinds of things. Grinding flower, boiling water, drinking water, cooking soup, collecting berries, and it can even be used as a filter which will be explained in another post. You can make one of these in one or two evenings with persistence. If you think about how long it takes to burn a log, the amount of wood your trying to burn out of your cup is not nearly as much.
