Rare Cannon Lighter Restoration

- Rare cannon lighter restoration. This time I do a restoration video of a very cool cannon lighter that was sent to me to restore and repair.
The cannon lighter seems very authentic and was in a really bad condition. There was rust and the metal was very thin with a big hole I had to repair.
The lighter part was stuck, old and in a bad condition. Luckily for the project and me, the gas container, gas valves and sealings was in an OK condition and still worked fine after some minor repairs.
There was no inscription, soldier or brand name on the lighter, so If you know anything about Vietnam war lighters, please leave a comment below. I really like to know more about this. Thanks.
I enjoyed doing this restoration video and this I my third time doing a war lighter restoration - Beautiful experience. Sorry that I added chrome wheel to the lighter. Please forgive me for that it didn't turn out as expected 😉
This cannon ended up way more beautiful than I expected. And I even left some old patina behind. And you know what. I’m allowed to keep this lighter after this restoration. So, it’s a keeper. Not for sale!!
Please subscribe if you want to see more cool upcoming restoration projects 🙂

Thanks for watching my videos. See you next week.
Warmest regards
Martin

Have a very nice day - WAR IS BAD - MAKE LOVE NOT WAR! 👌❤❣❤
Its sad that there are wars still going on today. Its the people who go to war that pay for it, not the government. The governments just make people fight for them and I hate it.
Awesome Restorations as already cool. From Ukraine with love
Hi Martin, are you open for collaborations? Could you please share your email id?
Was für gepfusche, Sekundenkleber anstatt hartgelötet, pulverbeschichtet anstatt echt verchromt...
Sowas will sich Restaurator schimpfen, das ich nicht lache👎👎👎👎
Pfui Deivel
So if using a sandblasted not a good option? I think it’d get most of the surface rust and crap of very easily
Love the video but I must say there was some beautiful detail on the wheels that was lost with the powder coating.
I agree with you.
Thanks for watching and for sharing your opinion I really appreciate it 👍
I also agree. He should've left it that way. He both covered up the details and the history
Agree would have looked so much better buffed and polished.
I thought that too
It's extremely disappointing that the flame doesn't come out of the barrel.
ha ha. Me too. But it's still very beautiful - thanks for watching :)
how extremely disappointing not to see the wholw video.
I read this comment before I watch the entire video. I'm very disappointed.
And how the f*** would you do that 🤦♂️
Amazing. But I think the wheels lost so much detail during the chrome coating, and they don't fit with the rest of the cannon (look wise).
yeah
I wish you didn’t add chrome on the wheels. Love your work though!
I agree - that was a big mistake ;-)
I still love your work! I watch your vids all the time! 😊
Is it possible to remove that
Dont like the powder coated wheels. Should have just cleaned and polished them
Yeah it looks ugly now
idk man, looks fine to me
I agree, if you’re going to leave the barrel, leave the wheels
All good except wheels powder coating
Yes this project is not the yellow of the egg. Looks cringe.
I could not continue to watch after the powder coating of the wheels.
I feel that way during most of his restorations - I guess that’s his business but he takes all the history & patina away - I use products on decorative items to make them look rusted - LOL - I love rust -
I’ll tell you what: this looks so much fun recreating a part of history! I would love to start doing this! It seems very relaxing and what a rush when it’s complete!
And I love finding treasures that show their age & leave them exactly that way ! To each their own, right ! 😊
TH-cam has weird ways of recommendation but hey I appreciate it
Thanks for watching and I'm really glad that you appreciate it 👍👌

Well I can Honestly say I totally missed this the 1st time around. When I started seeing the Detailing on this as you were cleaning I was blown away. This just really is so Cool. Thanks for Sharing.
RIP all the intricate detailing on those wheels =(
Ive been really enjoying watching these videos, the different techniques used are amazing, the precision and careful handling is especially impressive. But what also makes the videos amazing is the editing and filming. The close up shots, shallow depth of field, the pulling focus, and rich colours of the detail makes these so immersive. Well done to all. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 😉👍 ❤

Vc e o cara !!!! Sensacional suas restaurações!
Hi, we are from Chile.
My son Diego likes very much your restauration videos and when you finishes we says "woooow he let it impeccable"
Greetings and congratulations.
I find it amazing how many of these items that are restored have no damage to the metals. It seems that the corosion and rust does nothing to the metals at all. Very strange but yet they do end up very well done.
Its because they are artificially 'damaged'
From VietNam with love 🇻🇳♥️
Sweden Love you back my friend. Thanks for watching :)
本当に丁寧で、しっかりした作業で、尊敬します
thank you
I've never been into the oddly satisfying craze, but I find this oddly satisfying
Nice of them to send the easily removable dirt too.
ha ha ... yes very kind of them... Sadly I had to spend 1-2 hours applying it to the lighter before i did the video :/ ...
Yes wy you would send it with dirt you clean it first then you send it he puts the object in the ground for 2 or 3 weeks or more then he digs it up.and then he restores the object so he lies about that somebody send it to him
8:49 so... you’re telling me you lost the opportunity to write “subspray”
i really love your videos ❤️, your work is amazing
From Vietnam with love
thanks ❤🇻🇳
You are a creative and sophisticated person, may God protect and care for you❤❤❤
why the f**k are these vids so satisfying to watch lmao. I love it!
ha ha ... Thanks for watching :)
I don’t know
I am Vietnamese and i can say "I am inevitable "
Thanks mr. Wow
Wow
I always felt asleep whenever i watched ur video
Glad that you woke up to leave this comment ;-)
Haha literally mate.
@@AwesomeRestorations helps me sleep no need od asmr u r d best
Ok, just now watching this video. I know its 6 months old, sorry for the late watch. Its very cool to see how far you've come with your talent in just 6 months. Great job dude! Wish I had some old piece I could send you to be restored.
Amazing job!!! I have family and friends that served in that war. Most of them have PTSD. War is bad, I definitely agree.
Thanks Rick - yes PTSD is unfortunately really common among veterans :(
I'm sorry for your friends and family...
I wish they would stop making people fight
Sadly that's impossible! what they can do is take better care of their veterans.
My uncle served during Vietnam! My respects to them
Dude,you have my respect for the patient
Thank you - I took me a week 😬😉
Your videos should be considered ASMR. Great job, keep it up.
Ver el antes y después de cada pieza me fascina.Felicitaciones.
Una reliquia.
Awesome incredible job

He looks like when he restore an actual old cannon not a lighter
Unbelievable how it turned out. Just perfect! Thanks for a job well done…
Thank you! Cheers!
love this video 10/10, im liking lighters too
War is stupid! Thank you for understanding that. It makes us lose everything and no one is the winner. fortunately after more than 40 years, we have left the past to a better future! From Sai Gon - Ho Chi Minh City - Vietnam💌🇻🇳
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 😉👍
Pham Nhat. I went to Vietnam 2005, 2006 and 2009. My daughter is part Vietnamese. In 2005 I went to the Vietnam museum Saigon what the people like calling is opposed to Ho Chi Minh. I saw a Vietnamese soldier on display. It really brings home the unnecessary impact of lives lost at the hands of the very few. Many people don't know not only Americans also Australians held a protest in I think Brisbane to end the Vietnam war. And so pressure built up to actually stop a war they didn't want to end.
Estou aqui custando a me conter cada peça é uma Raridade e são lindas vc é um gênio 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏😘
Ele fala inglês n entende nada que vc fala
I lie the way the wheels turned out! Magnificent job all the way around
That should be like
To restore he has to know so much of all the machines and carpentry chemistry craftsmanship....
Mannn
This is awesome!! I must say though i think the details on the wheels got a little washed out after the chrome coating..its really pretty though
Keep it up..and these old lighters really are very unique.
Yeah,war is bad..peace
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 👍 and yes ... I can see that - to much powder from the coating gun this time ... sorry 😬😉👌
Good
Thanks :)
Better and much more beautiful than new!! Good job
Thank you so much!
this is great and the canon is beautiful. But the wheels ! The poor wheels lost everything in the powder
It still had the green colored stuff on it. No sand blasting?
Красавчик, мое почтение 🤘
Restauración y reparación ! Tremenda paciencia ! Buen trabajo !
The Master knows his stuff
love your massage in the last part of this video. i'm Vietnamese. support for you.
Thanks Xuan Huy Nguyen - I'm really glad that you liked it - have a nice day 😉👌❤
I was amazed at the knowledge about Viet Nam war.
I love it and I love u 3000 from Viet Nam.
War is the worst thing - Make peace.
Thanks for watching Hoàng Vũ Võ Nguyễn 👌
Did Americans say sorry for destroying your country, for Agent Orange, for murdering your people?
@@McSymm_Mcsymm The US has denied responsibility to infected victims. But the US paid Vietnam 6 million USD to remedy the consequences in 2009.
That it all i know.
Man? You are truly gifted. Well done
Thank you so much 😀
I'm happy, because I'm from Vietnam. Thanks for your video
Thank you too!
Ролики вообще прикольные, они такие спокойные!!!
Nice job, shame about the loss of detail from powder coating, perhaps for finer details an airbrush would help with acrylic water based paint such as Tamiya? i use that stuff. Alternatively you van use finer powders for small details apparently, but i havent managed to find any as yet. Great job overall though.
Love how your very easy on the piece. Beautiful workmanship
i'm vietnamese.and i love this video
many thanks :)
More incredible than that is:
Who did this piece?
I just realized how stoned I am,,, I've been watching your videos for the last 3 hours and I'm jealous I'm not doing it,,,
Thanks for watching my friend ;-)
I live in Vietnam, I love thì video ❤️
Love this video. Thanks you!! From Viet Nam with love ❤❤
You're so welcome! ❤🇻🇳
no no not o very good jobe the paint masks details in the weels and why the body is not shining !!
Thanks for watching and for your kind words - I just improvise on the go. I liked the green color on this 😉
食器と一緒に洗っちゃうのね🤣
ほんとだwww
Chill out and out stress watching this! 🙏
i'm vietnamese and i really like your videos wish you happiness and good health
thank you so much - the same to you ❤🇻🇳❤🇻🇳
You should have played fortunate son during the video
That's a copy righted song. Would've gotten a copy right strike.
SimplyK he can give credit tho in the desc
@@jesuschrist4498 that's not how that works bud. You should Google it.
Better yet: "Run Through The Jungle"
Колеса ужасно выглядят - до покраски было несоизмеримо круче. Вид был благородный с четким рельефом узоров. С самой пушке вопросов нет, но как говорят: даже мелочь может испортить все общую картину восприятия. Очень жаль!
Нравится мне наш русский народ к любой мелочи придерется
@@berserk.n Должен быть логически завершенный вид, который запороли - некаждый ремонт делат предмет лучше и это нужно понимать. Вот вам утрированный пример: сделать дорогой ремонт в комнате и повесить старую дешманскую люстру - итог: общее восприятие будет испорчено всего то одним предметом. Здесь тоже самое.
А,яб колеса вообще такими аставил-
Согласен, с колесами - безобразие... если они из ржавеющего метала, то имхо нужно тогда было их после очистки просто лаком покрыть. А так - восприятие действительно испорчено... стало выглядеть как дешевая пластиковая отливка под хром. С этим - большой минус. А в остальном все неплохо.
Putin = 💩
It's been a couple of weeks watchin you're videos, honestly saying, I've become a fan of your work sir !!
I appreciate that!
And yet another excellent restoration
Thanks Joseph :)
Пойду пороюсь в сарае, если найду что нибудь ржавое, отправлю тебе!!!!
You should sue the universe because the fire doesn't come out of the cannon
😂
This fella is genius!
thanks you so much John :)
Wow loved watching this one, its amazing how good you get them looking. Keep up great work. I know I'm late to these videos but just found you few days ago and slowly watching them all. That polish wheel really made that thing shine. I also like how it looks like you have fun while working. Very entertaining to watch such amazing work.
Thanks so much!
Kid:I'm hungry what's our dinner?
Menu=old rusty cannon lighter
ha ha ... 👌👌
I love your vids, but why do most of the things you restore seem wet before you start? Do you soak them beforehand?
Thanks for watching - No it's this one is absolutely dry. But sometimes it test "how hard it this stuck" conditions with a little WD 40 before the video is made :)
Todas as restaurações ficam lindas! 👏👏👏Parabéns! Sou do 🇧🇷
Thanks for watching I really appreciate it 👍😉
I opened TH-cam to put on a long play of some old video games to zone out while I update tables and joins in SQL... the Vietnam zippo resto was a suggested video and I thought why not I’m waiting for data to load... several restorations and an hour and a half later I’m watching you restore a Cannon lighter... Well done you, have a subscription!
Lovely work - but I don’t think powder coating the wheels was worth it - you lost all the fine detailing and they look out of place with the rest of the cannon.
The old greenish red rust on the canon doesn't look well with the gold ligter and chrome wheels
Yes Alice Wong - its beautiful 👌 Thanks for watching 👍
@@AwesomeRestorations Should have polished it and not plated the wheels.
Love the way things are restored. Watching all your videos. Happy to see the lighter lighting a candle
Glad you like them!
Olá.tudo bem? Maravilhado com resultado final da restauração do canhão_esqueiro. Trabalho de mestre. Parabéns.
