Shows a character after using the Tinder Drill in an attempt to light a Pile of Wood.

A Tinder Drill is used to start fires in any lightable object, such as: Torches, a Pile of Wood, Fireplaces, Meat Smokers, and others.
Tinder Drills are consumed when they start a fire, and also have a 50% chance to break before a fire is successfully lit.

Using a Tinder Drill quickly drains Phlegm, and, if it breaks during use, it damages the users Blood.

To use a Tinder Drill, merely pick it up and right click the item to light.
It's suggested to keep two or three of these on hand just in case of one breaking.


Tinder drills are very slow and unreliable at starting fires. Most players use tinder drills to light a fireplace and keep that fed through their play sessions. For additional fires, a Torch can be lit at a fireplace, and, once lit, is superior to the tinder drill in almost every way.


Players with access to iron may consider Flint & Steel.
