inserts, as a rule, all steel, brassovskie simply inserts a special coating is applied to them to become yellow, and originally - insert a normal, like everyone!

at Copper, I think, insert normal, steel, without the "color coat":

well, sorry, colleague! all questions to the manufacturer! :) Not all Zippo is not metallic color insert appropriate color ... there are a lot of different colors and Zippo customized for each insert appropriate color - a laborious process, and probably not very profitable for the manufacturer! come and take potluck with us, as they say :)

I'm just planning for the future to buy himself some kaku th Zippo kakogonibud of metal, well, that was cast, without coatings. On the red copper decided to stop. But now it is something I somehow did not impress. Here are solid brass made competently yet. But I do not like yellow ...)))

I have long brushed copper gives no rest, everything is going to buy, but his hands do not reach, the constantly postponed its purchase! but the model is beautiful, with time the charm will not lose, nothing in doubt, although this is only my opinion!

solid brass - purely on the fan! in fact in any modern Zippo hides the same solid brass! I personally like copper also stamped on the bottom, where the word copper! but at the expense breaststroke suggest reading a passage here . there very clearly all written!

Solid Copper insert a steel, but the cover of this copper-reddish copper tsveta.A general Copper, needless to say, beautiful, of course, stands out among the other models.

evenk, clear, thanks! And I would like to ask, copper tends to darken. How are you with the things? I have a copper coin in 1881, and so it kind of dark. But it is not oxidized, and it is her kako is darkish patina. This is a problem of the metal or coins, because it went from hand to hand all this time? Though of course, my question is can and stupid, unnecessarily modern copper different from the royal copper 19th century. )))

Today brushed his Zippo for everyday use, the wick replaced, cotton filler, and properly tucked in a lighter, filled exactly 7.5 ml of fuel. Immediately noticed that there were very few inserts wool, at least I pushed back a little more wool, more tightly, a new wick neatly folded. I would like to ask whether I did replace the original filler for cotton from the pharmacy (apparently surgery)? Or had the sense to leave the original vehicle (it I just do not like to look at, yellow, resembles glass wool without glass)? It is too early to say better or worse running, but that's the correct dosage of fuel chuvtsvuetsya immediately, lighter does not detonate claps and lights always the first time. ))

very glad that my experience proved useful =) Actually filler can be done even from the women's pad =) So this is especially individual packing to leave home or to change it. Seems even had an opinion that wool should be made of natural material. So correct me if I'm wrong fellow =)

I cleaned this machine, carefully sawed off the needle exactly to length lid on the can of gasoline, even a little less, that from banks could squeeze every last drop. )) Here is the result:

Now, in principle, does not even have to open the bottom layer, just shove this needle in a hole in it, and all. )) Not a drop by, and filled all the way right. ))

In this sense, your device certainly practical and durable, but for 3 months or hint. That's why I did and washed after refueling - to Nitsche and had inadvertently not corroded =)

Naturalness wool directly affects the degree of absorption. Synthetics not accept, that's the difference. I use the repair lighters natural cotton wool balls in a large pack of 100 pieces is 20-30 rubles at the pharmacy :)

So there I have this phone also present the parts alone, silicone ring on the piston. So I did pull out after filling the piston and purged syringe. Dunno how this affects the gasket gasoline, but in principle it many years and it is ideal for sealing. Made in USSR. =)


Vladimir, and how to find a synthetic wool or not? Tried to fire it smolders, does not melt like. So absorb anything so fine.

My Zippo for about a month)) I understand that for you as a power user Zippo it strange, then I had to replace as quickly wick. )) I just really kosyachit with ingredients, ie the wick burns is not childish. 1 time just pulled the fuse, now that the new inserted. Well, what can I say, I Zippo lights up at home and on the street, day and night, and I smoke a lot, 2-3 packs a day, this is also probably affected)) Lighter works in a critical mode, so to speak. ))
