- My restoration video of an ancient homemade gas lighter from World War II. Soldiers made such homemade lighters from cartridge cases and used them in everyday life. The lighter was found in the ground during excavations in a rusty and defective condition. World War II fighting took place at the site of the find, perhaps one of the soldiers lost this homemade craft gas lighter. I decided to restore this gas lighter and fix it to keep in my collection for memory.
In my opinion, the result of the restoration was very good👍.

A handcrafted piece... It really deserves to be restored. It was beautiful! Congratulations!
Thank you very much for the good comment!)
What a find, and well made. The restoration is perfect, it looks new and it works.
Like the fact that you kept it's 'history' dents in it. Nice one.
Yes, I want the antiquity of the lighter to be preserved
That's one hell of a flame!
Why?
Suggestion: when polishing brass, steel, silver, gold, even aluminum, try the Original Nevr Dull (even for removing road tar). It's awesome and has been on the market for over 70 years. There is an Eagle One brand of the same product.
That’s a nice lighter.
✨👍😉
What two shell types would this be? I know the cap is probably a 9mm, but what is the casing used for the base?
I would have boiled it in citric acid for a little while. I rebuild alot of old lanterns with old dirty corroded brass parts. Citric Acid and 0000 steel wool saves alot of scrubbing for me.
Thanks for the advice. I'll try
Nice video mate . Keep going
Thanks!)
Muito bom trabalho parabéns pra vc 🇧🇷
Окопна творчість.
That's true
👍😉
Did you ever find out the origin of the shell casings? German, French, British ?
I don't know what kind of sleeve it is
👍👍👍
WWI & WWII produced these "trench lighters" with many replicas and even originals still for sale.
Were they made at the factory?
@@TheRestorer I imagine the originals were, I was a little kid in WWII and remember seeing them. I have no idea who might be making replicas - I did see a couple on Amazon, FYI.
特别喜欢这种 打火机

There's got to be a more CHEMICAL way (and maybe some buffing) than all the f***ing GRINDING that goes on in these videos! Dude you're removing every last shred of patina that makes these pieces interesting!
Ок
все чекав як ви придумаєте вирівняти корпус, але виявилось ніяк, тому вибачайте, але це не реставрація, а просто чистка )))

Why not use brass polish?
It is necessary to port
Q.How do you know if he was cool?
It looks cool. Especially if it was done 80 years ago

Hi)
Очень плохо. Автор испортил зажигалку, стер патину, затер ее грубой наждачкой, испортил кресало.

Looks British.
