Petrol-proof O-rings
<< < (3/3)
S. Heslop:
Finally got around to starting this, about a month later. Missed the birthday so it became a Christmas present, although I might miss that too.

Can't afford o-rings so i'm just using some under-diameter but oversized one I had in a box for now.




Nothing like flash photography to show up every scratch. I just need to make the striker to finish it off.

S. Heslop:
Just finished the lighter.



I think it turned out alright, but the striker is a bit of a mess since I ended up having to file it by hand. I didn't have any files thin enough (the one I used last time has gone missing) so I ground a couple of needle files thinner and didn't quite get it all lined up. But hey, it works. I recorded making it so i'll probably edit a video of it tomorrow.
