I've recently gotten into punk and I love the ingenuity the goes into fixing stuff and not wasting anything, especially clothes

Ive seen people make a bullet belt but instead of bullets they used disposable vapes, so i imagine the body of the lighter could be used for the same purpose!

I do this to my hoodies. Good way to reinforce the fraying parts. Plus if you use nail polish you can make them your favorite color. They can also double as fishing lures if you do that.

those lighter tops used to be used by freight train hoppers to show the number of miles...it's an old hobo thug before it was punk

Hey, nice piercing by the way :) I tried to destroy the lighter, to see components. But didn't have instruments, almost broke teeth :D This plastic is very good. The button maybe can replace some broken zipper part. The wheel, first thing come to my mind - custom steampunk style earrings...but need instruments ar additional parts to make it... Actually a lot of ideas. The practical one - maybe if you need hard handle on your bag you can use lighter... Wish you best :)

I make firestarters from them. I cut off the white plastic bottom from the lighter and expose the two fluid chambers inside.then break out the divider, use a small.paperclip To make a pick, insert it into the empty chamber.fill the chamber with dryer lint, or pulled apart cotton balls.a piece of tape keeps it waterproof until you need to use it.pull the pick out to remove the lint, and use the striker to ignite it

I've seen people do this before, and I gotta say, it's simple, yet chic.

Wooah so cool! I never would have thought about that, I love this channel so much ^^

I love that idea, I’m gonna have to try it next time I run out of fluid in a lighter :D

[breannamcbride]

Maybe make a beaded curtain with them? I saw that before and it looked cool

You can make one hitters out of the lighters.

[hastyhillfarmandx]

You can take the flints out of them and re use them in zippos or those cylindrical lighters that are re fillable.

[Metal_Horror]

What happened to the music partway through? 😢

[artemisphantom]

Do keychains with the lighters, I always do that, let's not waste anything

[MichaelOfRohan]

If youve never tweaked a lighter you cant do this.

JUST ONE QUESTION. WHY. lol It doesn't even look cool? so. Why?!?!?!?!
