Both of them froze their butts off in the winter, where they could have

Mr, Producer Guy look at this.
The Firebed...
You know, I've always been intrigued with the firebed myself. I just finished writing Dave Wendell (hope that's spelled correctly), aka "BushcraftOnFire" on YouTube (YouTube - BushcraftOnFire's Channel) with the following letter:

Hi Dave,

I've voraciously watched every video that you've produced since I subscribed a few months ago. Very impressed.

I'd like to ask you if you'd be willing to go over the survival firebed. If you've already covered this topic, then forgive me -- I just wanted to learn some of the finer details in how to fashion one together properly.

I recently read the following article (The Firebed) by Ron Hood on what he does to avoid common problems that some make when making & using the firebed. I would really appreciate seeing the construction of one in video form while simultaneously getting your personal take on how to execute it properly.

Keep up the great work brother, I'm hooked!

This was his response:

Matt...

I think that we can do that :) Please be patient.. as it probably won't be for a wee bit.. but it's on the agenda! Thanks so much for your comments and support!

Have a terrific Week Bro!

David


So stay tuned my man!
