Kyler Hann incorrect you lift the felt to fill a zippo lighter. I don’t care if you have 1000 of them you are doing it wrong. But I will explain why you are wrong. The felt is lifted so you don’t overfill the lighter. While the felt is lifted and you are putting lighter fluid directly on the cotton when the cotton gets completely saturated that is when you stop filling. You let the felt down and when you turn the lighter over to put the insert back in the case the dryer felt absorbs some fluid out of the cotton and it keeps the lighter from leaking in your pocket.

Great video again! Really like how you do all this without expensive specialist machines. 💪👍 Small generic safety note regarding the drill press though, vinyl or nitrile gloves are fine, but don't even use safety gloves while using a drill. The drill bit could easily catch the glove and tear it apart, taking the operator's hand along with it. Same with other fast spinning equipment with cloth-snatching capabilities like lathes, mills etc.

This is very satisfying to watch. I can only imagine how satisfying it is to restore

Many comments about lifting the felt pad to fill the lighter. FYI The felt is there to keep lighter fluid in the batting and not letting it evaporate in the bottom of the case. Also the wick is more effective when you wind it back and forth in a serpentine fashion intermixed with each of the balls of batting as you press them in the case. This insures the wick is in contact with fluid filled batting and not sitting on top of all the batting..

Прекрасно,и мелодия очень красивоя

You always do such incredible work. In this instance, I think it would’ve been better had you used a smaller, softer brass brush to remove some of that corrosion rather than that large, stiff-bristled brass brush. I think the smaller, softer-bristled brush would not have left the scratches that you experienced from that larger brush.

Restoring the inside was pretty unecessary. Just put in a new "inner" from Zippo. It should be identical. The valueable thing is the case. And the hole on the bottom of the felt is not for a spare lint, it's to poke the refill bottle inside.

@jjryan1352

4 жыл бұрын

From the Zippo website: 1. Remove the inside unit from the case. 2. Turn it over and lift the felt pad to reveal the packing material in the fuel chamber. 3.Slowly saturate the packing material with lighter fluid. Stop filling when the fluid reaches the top of the packing, or begins to change color. In a video there they actually say you can keep an extra flint under the felt pad (not in the hole).

Another meticulous restoration, the thought process is inspiring.

Love how you fuel it at the end.
