I almost always carry my zippo with him, and began to be afraid of for her appearance (and so of course it does not scratch, but it would not increase ...). The first thing that came to mind - a cover. Zippo-branded vskie covers are nice, but expensive (about 400 rubles), and wear on the belt I really do not like, and you will not put a pocket ....   And somehow keeping an eye for the phone case of "sock" decided to do the same for his favorite. =)

The design changed a thousand times .... Stopped on the following specific version, as padlock decided to use the magnet from the old phone cover. Only one in the cap, magnets, it will be an insert to zippo.

Required for the manufacture of a piece of skin the size of 7h18, 5 cm, magnet, scissors, ruler, needle and thread and hand:

I did seam allowance of about 2 mm, plus the entire material is very soft.

Next, carefully hand sew (keyword carefully):

We select the best podvorot for caps, put the magnet, hemming and voila

The result is a great compact cheholchik, which will carry a lighter in your pocket with keys, coins and other stuff and do not be afraid for the coating zippo.

No guys, I came to the studio and I made a good case for the 150r, from my old Chinese bags, which once gave to a friend as "zippo The Original" ... well then confessed the truth :-) And that was about to sell the apartment to chromosomal pay ...: - )

Not to mudohatsya and sewing the cover is a little secret (Attenshen!!). You stamp into the shop with the Chinese sherpotrebom sells a lot again Chinese supp (i-i-i-i-i!!) And for 5 rubles. cheholchik take a completely new, with different sizes of kozhzama (seemingly very neat) Why so cheap you ask, answer - the sellers they go absolutely free as a container of our younger brothers)))))) (ie, the Chinese and -and-and-and-s-!) ISSUE RESOLVED?

LUTER, in my town it's not a ride, because We Chinese are sold in cartons ... (And by the way, never seen in our Chinese counterfeits of Zippo, usually noname, or trudnovygovariemy set of letters ...)
