I have to say that the Zippo company is shear genius. Change nothing for 90 years, thus making all of the parts compatible over the years and STILL raking in the dough.

IX Zippo is a 1993 model. 30 years of corrosion and neglect melted away. What a wonderful job! The Zippo company themselves should be impressed. Fantastic work as always.

Man, you are on another level. Those were some great shots. I follow you for some years now and seeing the evolution in your videos is pretty cool. Thanks for the work, your are the best of them, keep it up.

Beautifully done, Tysy. What a striking remembrance of such a fateful day. I'm just grateful my father missed it. He had plenty on his plate in the S. Pacific.

Superb job. My father was in the Royal Engineers and went across on D-Day+1, he never talked about his action or what he saw, but clearly saw plenty with three Oak Leaf "mentioned in dispatches" commendations. A very quiet kind gently spoken man.

Not enough WD40

Beautiful restoration Tysy, as you have accustomed us. The improvement in content quality these past few months has been astounding. Congratulations from Uruguay 🇺🇾

Truly amazing! I could watch your restorations all day.

1:45 “I’ll add a squeeze of wd40!” *adds a giant amount💀🗿*

Once again, proof of why you're still #1. Love your Zippo restorations more than anything else. Those lighters bring back so many great memories of special occasions when they were presented as a gift to another member of my military family. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Side comment: Gotta love how cinematic your restorations are. Beautiful shots of smoke and the process.

My cousin's grandfather was an American soldier during WWII and he was there. Many years later, the 2 of them were watching the movie, "Saving Private Ryan" and at the Normandy scene, right after they drop the doors from the boats, his grandfather had to get up and leave. He was outside crying and he told my cousin, "It's too accurate and real to relive it."

Although it's been a while since I've dropped by your channel, you're still my favorite restorator. I'm so impressed with how much your videos have elevated through time. You've nailed this ASMR shiz down to a T! Awesome work 👏🏻

Not only he restore rusty objects But he also restore our soul with his videos ♡

The best thing is to wake up the day with a restoration video. Cheers, TySy 😊

Nice restoration. I know quite a bit about D-day, and the Canadians and others who served. Never forgotten, always honored .

As always, pristine museum quality craftmanship. Artistic perfection of the highest calibur. Any museum would be extremely lucky to have you restore antique pieces for them. Tysy is world class for sure. I watch other restorative geniuses on RU-vid, but you are the King of them all! I am ALWAYS super excited when you put out another video.........especially ones with some historical significance. You've given that lighter at least another 100 years of life!! ❤❤

Very satisfying to see. And may i say it... how bold Tysy to almost show yourself in a video!! :D Thanks for the upload!

The effort and work you put in to make these things beautiful again is amazing! It would have been a whole lot easier to just restore the shield and attach it to a new Zippo, but that wouldn't have been the same. Thank you for sharing these!

That was…. Amazing!! And so beautifully filmed too. Beauty and purpose returned, how great is that!!! Thank you !

Beautiful job! I'm old enough to remember when refillable lighters like the Zippo were still the most common. Back then, people took care of the things they owned and took pride in how long they lasted. The Zippo and Ronson lighters were proud possessions for lots of people. It really says something that Zippo is still around even 50 years after the lighter industry came to be dominated by makers of crappy disposable lighters from companies like Bic. Great video.

I have had a Zippo for nearly 40 years now, from the ship I served on in the Navy, and it's still in superb shape!

My grandfather was there, he would have liked your video. Anyway, thanks for the content, or as he would have sad “Danke”

I have been on Juno Beach, the part of Normandy that Canada landed its troops on during D-Day, and it was a very moving experience. Quite the amazing battle and at the time, not altogether clear whether the beach-head on the continent was going to hold. Nice restoration!

Nice restoration. The original 1994 D-day 50 years anniversary Zippo had a kind of black wrinkle paint on it originally. And the "leafs" in the brass emblem were painted red. But still lovely job.

Another stunning restore Tysy, love how you bring history back to life.

The video effects and ASMR 😍Thank you for this. It looks absolutely perfect!

Something I know about D-Day is that they had specialized tanks that could act like boats. They added some floatation devices to the sides of the takes to help make them more floatable and added mechanical rudders to the back to steer it. While it may not have been adopted in sea warfare unfortunately, it is still an interesting fact, and the reason why there are actually quite a few tanks under the water at Normandy Besch

A fitting restoration to an Historical time. Salute.

i APPRICIATE HOW MUCH EFFORT YOU PUT INTO THIS

Super boulot, comme d'habitude. C'est satisfaisant de voir le résultat final. Merci pour tes vidéos.

Its an IX date code so made in 1993. Very cool lighter.

Excellent close up shots. Nice capturing the plumes of smoke.

Really impressed by the photography beyond the restoration

On the lighter it reads "D-Day 50 anniversary", so that makes it 1994

6:55 Fellow MCM Watcher 😉

As always awesome! Love your longer videos especially with sandblasting. More needed. Thank you. Your attention to detail is always appreciated

"I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill..." in restoration! Awesome ;)

Gorgeous restoration!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️ Edit: btw, how’s your rust pile coming along?

Zippo landed for the second time in Normandy 💥

The before / after is really really impressive 🤩👍

Beautiful commemorative piece of History. Thank You

So a 1994 Zippo? No need to do clickbait titles, your content is good enough

Great job always 👍

I have my great grandfather's tiny USN zippo lighter he used while building the ALCAN highway in 1943 with the Seabees. It's in perfect condition. This video reminded me of it. Thanks.

Awesome! A new TySy is just what I needed today!

How did that lighter get in that condition in just 29 years?

Don't say 1944 in the title if it is 1994

At 4:40 am my time I get a wonderful notification that my favorite restoration artist has posted! Thank you so much for the awesome video!!

A real treasure and special keepsake. You have incredible patience for such a detailed and small project. That was so fun to watch!

Man, that lighter was in very nad shape for not even being 30 ._.

Fun fact: normandy was chosen for the invasion because it was the least fortified sea coast.

As always great job ! Thanks Tysy, and bring another videos ! never stop !

excellent result and brilliant photography

a 1994 zippo restoration

I hate the fact that this video editing is so annoying that you actually lose your focus on the actual repair because of the unnecessary motions and editing effect. Makes me feel like I want stop the camera zooming movements by myself UGH

Man I love your videos and video editing skills. This was a top restoration job. Oh the cinematics. The lighting. So fresh and relaxing.

Generally curious, do you find items that look like this or create your own by placing them in a corrosive liquid

1994 anniversary edition lighter. Clickbait.

Nice Job! I really liked the one with the modeling clay.... 🐢

Love these videos to watch in the evenings, very relaxing!

outstanding bit of work sir

the talent is just amazing

Great craftsmanship 😊

Ohh, this smoothly sounds. Perfect finish Tysy! 😊

Great job! I have several Zippo lighters, luckily none look like what you started with! All are working!

quel plaisir d'avoir une bonne vidéo à regarder pendant mon temps de table. Great Job!!

That was amazing. Ive now subscribed to your channel. Thanks for uploading the video.

Nicely done. I do so enjoy your lighter restorations. The end result is stunning. 👍

Iv been following your channel for some years now. Have to say that the level of this video is really professional. Keep up the good work.

Always top notch work. Looks beautiful. I also really admire your camera work and editing. Great content. Thank you.

C'est incroyable a regarder ! Bravo pour votre travail !

These videos don't cease to entertain me

This zippo is amazing ! I’d love to have one just like that, I love relics like that

Brilliant restoration - and awesome to see the mightycarmods flag at the back!

I was 17 years afterwards but later on in life I became a soldier of 22 years. I met a few of those honorable men and I respect them for their sacrifices. That would have been a lighter to have owned.

Terrific job, You took what was a great product and revived itto new again. The love and care you put into your work is reflected in the final outcome.

Great video! Beautiful restoration! I quit smoking cigarettes almost a decade ago and while I don't desire smoking anymore I still wish I got to use a nice zippo every day like I used to.

Magnificent restoration !!!!!!!!!!!

One of your best videos and restorations!

A rather unique way to honor those who served!

Love the work, and the Mighty car mods banner 👌

Incredible, good job Tysy ! 💥

Shooting, transitions, quality and of course the workshop is on top! Thank you for sharing! Like and beep-beep! ^_^

Tysy is also history! 👏 Amazing restoration!

Excelente trabalho muito bom 👏👏

So satisfying

Love your videos watch every one of them

BEAUTIFUL

The master, beautiful work.

Je me souviens des 50 ans du débarquement. Très belle restauration 👏

Hi Tysy tube beautiful restoration beautifully restored well done

Super awesome, real good craftsmanship, and real good editing, just lovely. Thanks for this vid ^^

hello this is talent i am watching from Azerbaijan

Fantastic restoration job!

Brilliant! Another job well done sir.

At the beginning of the video you asked if anybody knew anything about D-Day. My grandfather was in the first division US Army, he was the first Gunner on a mortar crew and first wave on Omaha Beach. So, yeah I know a little bit about D-Day. Now stick with me on this one, one of my customers, who has now passed away had a father that was in the first division that also went in on Omaha Beach. He himself fought with the first division during the Vietnam conflict and at some point in time had collected two of the lighters you just restored. I got one, his son got the other when he passed. It originally came with a display case and had a slightly different finish. But sir, you did a great job!

Such a satisfying video.
