And immediately the question. I have two lighters, both insert filled with a sort of small chips and closed two felt pads. Lighters from different sources, the option that someone just poured something practically impossible (unless the customs sludge mail so fun :)). Other owners Bowers say they have either a fuel cell or wool.

Q: Does the inserts are filled with something like sawdust and, if so, what is this stuff?

Yes, at Bowers is sometimes found - I do not know what the substance is, but it seems it is wood chips. I came across several of these lighters in his time.

Exactly. Somehow decided to disassemble aluminum Bowers and was very surprised to see the gasket ... light yellow sand. First thought that the cotton stuffing and then struhnela. Picked open - no: stuffing was the very same "sawdust."

Sawdust is not only found in Bowers. Here at Evans (transparent table, with fish) - it also had a yellowish sawdust.

This somewhat explains the situation. I at first thought it was some kind of small larvae :) felt poured out (well, there may be 40 years old she was lying in the attic, and the filler was the ideal hive for termites, for example :))

And where you can learn all about the history of the brand, models and more generally disk imaging?

When I saw the picture of Japanese flat-Advertiser ($ 3 per dozen, if not traded - in the 50's), most likely Penguin-a sea cruises with ads from Hollywood with the signature: "Diplomat - Swiss company founded in 1956" - already perdnul amazement. Then he came across a picture of modern Ronson Premiere labeled "Automatic Lighter Ronson Varaflame 1957" - lit up. The pictures G-20 with the caption "One more amazing clone IMCO. Gas lighter from the USSR. Production LenEmalEr (abbreviation for seemingly Leningrad enamel, but what does EF?) Is a sign of quality. "- It whinnying loudly.

Not the word. Author does not simply copy-paste, it is also lazy, and also, I think he is a liar, a troll and a virgin, in general. :) Where it what to PESA himself and not copy-paste from a little-known site of vintage cigarette lighters (and other unknown sites of Zippo) - just zhyr what that ...

Little unhappy child Advertiser Aki Diplomat-a (which, AFAIK, he did not do anything, but let ... customized, whether that version of the German Consul-a) - this is generally a masterpiece ... :)

Hi!

Bo, her soul-saving. Just do not sip, and ... klizmochku. Possible with the needles of the gramophone, to facilitate learning.

On vintage to vintage ... no change, both on the western front for now.
