Zippo Lighter Restoration - Making a Wooden and Epoxy Lighter Case. In this video I restored an old Zippo lighter and made a case for this Zippo, out of wood and Epoxy resin.
This zippo lighter is quite old. I bought it for restoration from a person who found it with the metal detector on a beach. This zippo is made of brass and the sea water created a beautiful patina but if I had not restored it now, it would most likely have been destroyed in a short time.
The restoration of the zippo lighter was not difficult because I used original parts for repair. But after I finished restoring I thought of making a wooden and Epoxy resin case. I have never seen this project anywhere so I had to make my own plan. For the case I used curly Koa wood. I will leave you a link at the end of the description. It was quite difficult to mill the slot where the lighter had to go.
I tried in this restoration process to film the steps that I followed quite simply to understand by you, but if you have questions about the restoration, I am at your disposal in the comments category.
Also, during the restoration I used subtitles about the process and solutions used. If you notice grammatical errors, I apologize in advance. English is not my native language and I am doing my best to improve it.
I put a lot of passion and effort into this restoration. Although I was afraid of the results of the case, I am proud of how it came out and I really like it. I hope you like the restoration and the construction of that case.
That's all for this project, enjoy watching and I have to focus for the next restoration.
The following link belongs to the person from whom I got the wood. Is a seller on the Etsy platform, a serious seller who has quality wood at good prices : www.etsy.com/shop/YellowFinKn...
Cheers to all and stay safe during this times...

  • Why do I feel that the Insert was changed to something new mid-sandblasting. The side pitting/being bent disappeared, as well as the insert is from January 2010, while the case is 1932-1989. 3:51 - Pitting visible, back side is bent inwards, 3:59 - Insert is swapped to a new one. Apart from that - end result is insane, as this was more of a wood/epoxy project, rather than a true restoration, that ain't much. Enjoyed the video still

    • I've already discussed this with others who have commented. due to the rust, the insert looked flat, and when the surface was sandblasted, the shapes began to show. the rust was not deep and the surface had no pits. Indeed, I removed the insert while blasting to better clean the inside with a small brush. then I straightened the board. I didn't show it in the video, because I would have made the video too long and it wasn't a very complex job. I've reviewed that part a few dozen times and you certainly have every reason to believe that the insert has been changed. but I assure you it was not so. Indeed, the insert is newer than the case, but that's how I bought the lighter. I bought it from a beach boy, most likely it was found on the beach near the Black Sea, Constanta, the city where I live. Cheers and glad you liked at the end 👍🏻

The Zippo logo and related is gone under the bottom part of the case, and there is no "solid brass" on any of it either when it comes out of the glass beads. It most definitely looks like another case. However, just because the guy has chosen to use another case doesn't make the video less interesting. The case may have been restored, but not for this lighter. :)

Is nothing too hard when working with resin. Just be careful with the bubbles. When mix the resin,you need to vacuum the air from epoxy

  • Such a beautiful project. I love the wood and epoxy case. I also like how you follow the wick laying instructions to get the best results. Sometimes things need to be done a certain way to get the best results and it's great you followed that.

  • I used to have a Zippo when I used to smoke. I had a brushed steel one for every day stuff and a matte black one with a green/gold dragon on it for nights out. This video takes me back to those days. The smell of the liquid, the striking of the flint, and that crisp metallic sound of the Zippo opening and closing. I still don't want to smoke, but damn. I now miss my Zippos again. I haven't thought about them in years. Not using them was one of the first steps that allowed me to quit.
