Good day, today I want to introduce my new lighter "1/2" (who cares why the "1/2" is very simple and commonplace, all of their crafts I improvise on the go and at the end of the work I just didn’t decide what it looked like))) and since there is a 1/2 inscription on the case, I decided to call it 1/2 as well) And so the manufacturing process was sorted out with the name now.
For the case, I took a part from the water tap, so to speak one second)
And spare part from another tap (mixer)
The result is such an unusual case
Then, from the spare parts of the second mixer, I mounted the wick with the lid
Then soldered in one piece
Then he turned a tube under the silicon from a bolt
Then he took a plumbing cap and cut off the edges from it, and a boring cover for the bottom of the lighter turned out. To decorate the lid, I took the gear from the Soviet alarm clock and a little copper wire. Marked out the future design, prepared the necessary parts and soldered together
He boiled all the details in citric acid to wash off the soldering oxides, cleaned and placed in a tank with ammonia to apply a patina
After slightly polished so as not to erase the patina and all the lighter is ready Thank you all for your attention to my homemade Come visit, there are many interesting homemade products in front)
