Here is a new video !!
This is a vintage TV lighter made by the Japanese company K.K.W. around 1960.
It was in very bad shape, some parts were broken or missing and had to be re-made.
The chrome was scratched and I had to make new plating.
Please watch till the end to see this 1960's Japanese TV lighter in action !

How you put this beautiful little piece back to life is really something to admire, but just as impressive is your filming, keeping the focus even on the tiniest parts.

The use of the Lathe always takes me back to Machine Shop. Learning to make your own tools, the ones we used you needed to dial it in on all 3 sides then start your project the 1 i hated but thought was Pretty neat was the CNC Lathe.
