Disassemble the lighter and the flash drive.
To disassemble the lighter you will have to remove a screw on the bottom of the lighter.
To disassemble the flash drive you will have to use a knife or a scalpel to cut the sides of the flash drive case.
Assembling the Lighter Case

Now you need to glue the case back together. The case can be longer than the flash drive, you can always put in a piece of plastic so that it can't go in too deep. Also you will need to wrap some electrical tape around the flash drive so that it fits snuggly in the case.
Assembling Everything

Now you need to insert the flash drive in the lighter case,but remember to put some glue on the electrical tape before you insert the flash drive in the case because it will stay plugged in the computer when you try to pull it out. When you are done, you will have a cool looking USB flash memory drive.
