Old video but i got a question, after the wick is not working/dead or whatever, do you just pull the wick or do you have to do the s shape trick again?
@wayneholmes637

Just pull it out a bit then cut it. No need to do anything else. After doing it 2 or 3 times, depending on how much you cut off, you can repack it with a new wick.

Excellent thank you. You’re probably going to be a resource for kids now and the future when people will be required to go analog. I’m sure they will be confused by the fact that they should be able to manage their own tools themselves. That’s what guy’s with grey in the beard knows. Good job 😏❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸

That's a good idea using the plastic to keep the wick uniform.

More catalyst equals more heat, use more in the head. Char prevents proper evaporation thus less heat, you may not notice the benefit of Carbon felt but it is there. Leave half or more Rayon and use a little Carbon felt each warmer.

I use two thin putty knives (3/4") to push the cotton in. They double as a way to unscrew the Flint tube. Another KZitemr [@Zippo Fanatic77] posted a similar video.

The hinge is where it leaks from. Its always a good idea to store a zippo wrapped in a small plastic bag. This stops vapour evaporation. A zippo will normally last a few days without wrapping but if you wrap in a plastic bag it can last over a month.

Great video and amazing mods! How do feel about the rubber gasket vs the sandwich bag trick? I guess the sandwich bag has the advantage as you said of providing a barrier to the metal so it doesnt scratch.

Zippo flints suck,If you want a better quality flint. Get a full size disposable lighter and take the flint out of it and use it in your Zippo. It is a harder, longer lasting and better sparking flint.normally you will have to cut the flint in half... Another thing you can do is use Coleman camping fuel in your Zippo lighter.burns the same as lighter fluid and is a heck of a lot cheaper.a gallon of it runs under 20.00 bucks...

Are platinum catalysts required? Those are really expensive ($25+). Can I use rock wool instead?
@bpetnoi1472

By adding more of the fireplace platinum stuffing to your warmer did you notice if the unit ran hotter? Seems that it should if you have an increased catalytic surface and also it seems it would burn more fuel. I don't care about fuel consumption, but I would like a warmer unit. Let me know if you have the time please.

Brilliant idea with the “necklaces.” I had a jacket that had two inner pockets that were located on both sides of my heart, where I would put hand warmers in each while working in -40C degree weather. I always wondered what I would do if I did not have that particular jacket. The “necklace” is the answer. 😊

ONLY use a Jon E brand!!! :) Well, that's what I heard. I sure LOVE mine. I bought it at Goodwill years ago, not knowing what it was...a couple bucks. And I just could not survive our snowbound winters here in Washington State, up by the pass. I cannot recommend these enough!! My baby will last 8-12 hours and Ive never really filled it UP up.

My grandpa was driving and his leg started to burn/ hurt . He had overfilled his zippo and it leaked thru his pants. 1950 era. If only they had ziplock bags back then. Lol. So smart buddy. ... 👍 Good thinking.
