As an Aussie who loves spending time in your beautiful country this is awesome. The same basic principals are all the same anywhere but it's great to have a good idea of what to look for.

Ah ha Ahi! Well done. When marooned on buildings sites, back in the days before Bic, I made embers for ciggies from the Kiwi chippie recipe...bendy bit of trim bow, string line cord, Matai spindle, Rimu platter, knotty bitta offcut handstall. Didn't need fire, really wanted a light! Glory days. Thank you.🙃
