Basic Zippo Opening Trick

First you need a zippo. You'll need to hold it in one hand onthe side with the hinge

You then need to take your other hand and bring it along side the zippo with enough friction to open the lid

At this point the lid should be open, now for the hard(ER) part

You now new to bring your hand down so it hits the striker. I hit my hand on the wind sheild quite a lot. It should light now

And it's lit! It would be cool to then close it with the basic close in my other instructable.( please make sure to check it out!) I hope you enjoyed and please feel free to follow or comment.
