Zippo tour part two

[CxC2007]

The level of automation of this plant is extremely low, wow, and the production level, seems not to be that high.

they migth work 3 shifts, and also that is low.

how may plants exists from Zippo in USA ?

[roma909]

@frankie1287 can I buy some from you?

[38b]

@sparkiify, yes, employees do get lighters at a discount and also get zippos as gifts @ Christmas and special occasions. Also employee only zippos that aren't for sale to the general public.

[thenaked2rist]

thisis really old. still roman numerals.

[rexliznelson1]

it is interesting that the second part is mostly done by hand. while the first part is all machine.

[Hunner72]

i wonder if the opeeration has cahnged any throughout the years

[frankie1287]

@BJpizz82197 i think its because its an easy job for older women. not having to get up or anything. they just sit on their ass all day and use there hands

[frankie1287]

i have a ton of zippo's in my garage that i never even look at. i should probably take some looks at them at least.

[Ltpeppers05]

So I'm guessing this video is pretty dated, do they still handmake all their lighters cause there are videos of them being made by machines

[scouser96100]

in side unit? call it an instert woman

[mowat440]

love zippo lighters and the 1980`2 and the big hear

[frizzlefochizzle]

5:48 no, we cant see a difference, because of the crappy quality.

[oktobercat]

When you consider what goes into a zippo, they are handmade , i guess the 40 pounds i paid 4 mine is pretty reasonable, alongside maglites and sigg water/fuel bottles , they are a national classic, agood pair of vids , thanks 4 posting. 55/5

[BJpizz82197]

why are there all old ladies working there?

[mjndblain]

this video fucking skips alot

[perfuckio]

zippo's lighter fluid is actually synthetic.

[Pierre8907]

wouldnt suprise me if they did give their workers free zippos, they must make thousands of those a week.

[Staroutlawjames]

@Pierre8907 12 Million a year

[mjndblain]

"the etching prosess"

[F1TO8]

i wonder if they get free zippos?

[SchneiderStudios]

i wish that was filmed in HD lol

[eyraincg]

I like how she say "actually" so much :D

[yomamaspetbeaver]

Damn, I was playing with my Zippo the whole vid and now i need to refill I hate those trick videos also, i gotta question because right now Im using ronsonol. is there a difference between Zippo Fuel and Ronsonol Fuel?

[FESSFAN]

Yes.

[FESSFAN]

Zippo doesn't usually smell. When you dump it on your hand, your fingernails start to peal a littl faster than Ronsonol. I tested. Also, the cotton absorbs the zippo oil better so I can shake the zippo after I refuel. Ronsonol spills all over my hand when I shake. You can take my word for this.

[RELENTLESSED]

@FESSFAN i thought they used rayon or something instead of cotton. i cant remember where i heard that though...

[Bsmitty358]

@RELENTLESSED Rayon is used, it is still cotton, just a synthetic, not natural cotton

[RELENTLESSED]

@Bsmitty358 Thanks for clearing that up.

[TechnologicMe]

Thjaf

[Techh76]

zippo fuel is much higher quality, as you can read on zippo fuel's container, it has cleaner burning, improved ignition and low odor, it really has all that.

[puppetmaster983]

@Techh76 I have never put anything but Zippo brand products in my Zippos.

[RELENTLESSED]

@Techh76 i like the smell of swan lighter fluid

[Techh76]

@RELENTLESSED i like the smell of gasoline ..

[RELENTLESSED]

@Techh76 I like the smell of VODKA .....

[bikerdude96]

yer zippo fuel cost more lol

[Gannondalf]

i feel sorry for anyone working in any factory like this... but i love the lighters! :D

[Adamstube]
