There are several ways to make a lighter from a cartridge case, which we will share with you today. It would seem, why, if various lighters are sold around? The fact is that it may not always be at hand. But the skills of making a homemade lighter will never hurt. By following our instructions, you will be able to boast of a self-made lighter.
Instructions
Step 1
Method one. Prepare a sleeve, a new zippa (or find an old one), a torch, and some copper / silver solder. Gut the flint from the zippa and take out the disk that strikes on it. Next, take out all the contents of the zippa: disc mount, filter and packing. Arrange and solder all contents. Remove all roughness with a file, giving the correct shape. Drive the soldered contents of the zippa into the sleeve, insert the wick and fill the top with gasoline. The lighter is ready.
Step 2
Method two. Prepare a narrow metal tube. Punch a hole in it for the wheel. Place a special flint for a lighter with a spring in the hole for the wheel. The flint should be with a small elastic band. Make a cap with a wick from durable metal or alloy. Collect the entire structure. Take an empty case. Solder the prepared metal tube to the sleeve. Refill with gasoline. The lighter is ready.
Step 3
Method three. Prepare a sleeve and cotton cord. Cut a small piece of cotton cord and dip it into the sleeve, pre-moistened with gasoline to protect it from moisture. Leave the outer end of the wick exposed to allow interaction with the flint. Make flint from a file. To do this, solder a small piece of a file, about 5 cm in size, to the sleeve. Pour gasoline into the sleeve. The lighter is ready.
