Send me a private message and I will be glad to be more specific. What I did was to put a strong magnet inside my back pocket (taped it up even to smooth out the rough edges) and can now position it (the lighter) confidently outside my rear pants pocket for a very quick insertion. The problem years ago was that the lighter set to receive the palmed item moved around in my pocket and could easily undo itself to. At the time I thought I spent too much for it but now I resurrected it and rather like it. coin or ring to the inside of the Zippo lighter. I have been doing one recently with a Zippo lighter with a new improvement I made.Ĭollector's Workshop made a trick that it just revived I see. You know they have increased the penalty for axe murders to 10 weeks in an ACE hardware store, caring for the deceaseds' family. PPPs Anyway we raised 4 with practically no problems, just ask my son the axe murderer. Sorry for the rant, I get distracted easily. PPs I think it is really strange the things that get censored on the net, the zippo site I mentioned, I have seen Christian sites get censored, and other innocuous sites, while if you look very close you can find sex with farm implements,(or anything else, even if you aren't looking for it) How to's on Chemical, Biological, and Nuclear weapons, etc, ad nauseum, yet no one seems to have problems with that ? But more attention to what your kids are doing could take care of a lot of problems. Ps I really am sympathetic with anyone whose child gets hurt. He told me that the site was being censored, and that it would be a while, but that he'd get the it back up after the furor died down.Īnybody know where I can find this new site, or an old site, or any site with zippo tricks? (someones child had burned themself, and outraged mothers united.)(Why weren't those kids watching TV like they were supposed to be?!? ) Honestly, I find that the old BIC Butane lighter lends it self to magic more than does the Zippo.Ī few years back, I found a website that had 100's of zippo tricks, and contacted the guy who ran it, just as the site was being censored. I must confess that while they worked after a fashion that they never worked well enough to actually perform! I think that I may still have my prototype set in a box somewhere. I have also used the Zippo for a flame through Handkerchief trick that ends with a flash of fire (flash paper) and the vanish of the Zippo (yep I made a simple pull out of my Zippo).įinally, I tried to build a set of Multiplying Lighters a la’ Multiplying Candles from the carcasses’ of several old Zippo’s. I have painted one side and face and bottom of a Zippo (leaving top, the other side, and back the original color) to do an easy color changing Lighter routine. That’s an old stunt that almost every Zippo owner learns at one time or another. I used to be able to “snap” a flam on (snap the fingers against the flint wheel so that it would spark and make a flame). Not a lot today, but back in the days before smoking was banned almost everywhere and before open flames were taboo I did a number of stunts and tricks using a Zippo.įirst I had a Zippo gimmicked like a bill tube to accept a bill or even a finger ring and still light.
