Zippo is a lighter brand, not just any lighter model. And as someone said it already before, that really looks very dangerous.

I kinda did this one for entertainment purposes even for me it would be cheaper to buy this http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6255 and that's 1 amazing lighter non zippo

just don't do anything stupid fills lighter with old spice lets the entire thing sit in his cars gasoline then puts firecrackers in the case that he's gona light on newyear nd then lights it and then theres just a small little flame from his homemade zippo!

i know right. cuz if something goes wrong the whole thing will burst into flames in ur hand and you'll most likely get some pretty horrible burns

lol well if you took that oil and put a bunch in a hand size of cotton it's not gona blow up! fire takes up air so inside that homeade zippo if something goes wrong it will squeeze itself into a blackhole! your right but I don't want to delete it it took me soooo long maybe I should make another tutorial for just the outer zippo case and put a real zippo in like the insides
