Tnanks! Try to use some sort of steel tapeline (spring coil) for tape measure. Or you can disassemble some old wall mechanical clock or roulette and extract spring from it. Or you can buy bandsaw blade and make spring out of it too. Something will work better something not. Try to find the best choice and your Zippo will have healthy “click” :)
Use the steel ribbons that hold heavy material on pallets . There’s different sizes in thickness and width . You find it easily in industrial areas and you get it for free . I’ve successfully repaired a revolver with this . Just be REALLY careful if you make a hole with a drill in that stuff and use gloves .
hola gracias por este videa realmente era lo que necesitaba,, consulta.. no me queda claro... cual es el material para arreglar el encendedor.. desde ya muchas gracias
Sorry did’t understand you were questioning me. As a material you can use any flat spring steel. For example: spring from old wall clock. Or saw blade. Experiment and you will find the best choice!

In Vietnam we have a lot replacement accessories replica 1:1 of the original 3 hinge 4 hinge 5 hinge barrel and the cam spring from 1950-20xx we have all
@@itinerantscientist8502 i don't remember the correctly time but last year I have found replica of the 1946 case nikel in the future i hope they can make a iconic insert
I’ve seen this video already: you have like a whole website! Therefore You need your own brand of Vietnamese lighter: like for using in high humidity conditions.
На пожизненной гарантии, согласен. Но как только начал читать условия пересылки, а особенно порадовала фраза «в случае невручения утилизация или платите нам 20-30 долларов», то энтузиазм мой спал и решил поколхозить))

If you send the lighter In to the repair clinic, they will replace the insert. This could be a problem for older lighters, as inserts may not be available. They will not fix the insert. They will only fix the outer case.
Agree. But if you live in a couple of thousands km from nearest repair clinic there is a trouble. If you can fix by yourself - better fix it than pay $40 for one shipping.
@David Boozer totally agree. My repair can only restore basic functionality if you need your lighter right now. Holding the lid tightly in two position that’s main mission. “Click” sound is a bonus) However the quality of Zippo lighters is constantly decreasing (the other people’s opinion). So the breaking of spring was totally unexpected thing for me because I used my Zippo less than a year…
Раньше фирма зиппо действительно делали качественные зажигалки у них бачок для заправки был паяный, а Сейчас из нутри клеевым герметиком заливают, а Он современем отпадает.
@itinerantscientist8502 У меня есть мысль свою версию зипки сделать кое какой прототип делаю у неё будет отдельный герметичный бачок для заправки топлива.
@@ВиталийРадзиховский-з6у это очень правильная мысль. Бензин у Zippo испаряется мгновенно. Иногда ощущение что это больше сувенир, а не инструмент, на который полагаешься.

Thanks for the content. I bought a zippo and it has no cam spring. Cheers
Glad to hear my work did help You! Have a nice day!
Hey Man~ This is a brilliant alternative! Will you share about the source of materials to improvise from?

how about using nickel material, is it possible?
If it’s springy enough and you can treat it why not. Try: maybe that’s the best choice!
Excelente trabajo Bravo
Glad you did like this idea!
Thanks

Excelente brotherr!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Do you know where I can find the cam spring rivet. I've seen it on another video but the guy didn't link it

I’m sure that’s amazing lighter! You will definitely find spare parts you need for repair!

They have a lifetime warranty....send it in and get it fixed or replaced absolutely free...
A couple of months of waiting and $40 for guarantee of returning back or refunding the cost if loose. So I was forced to create other way of repair)

@David Boozer I bet they use more “heavy” hydrocarbons for handwormers. And for Zippos they provide more volatile mix of hydrocarbons.
