step 1:
gather your supply's.
step 2 remove th insulation from your copper wire.
step 3: make a ball with the wire leaving about 1,5 cm on onside and 2 to 3 cm on the other end.
step 4: take the long end and pull it trou the centre.
step 5: pull the long end trou the top opening on the front of the lighter then loop the end back to the bottom.
step 6: now "lock" the whole thing by clamping it on one of the sides of the haf ring on top en using plyers.
step 7: the last thing to do is to align the ball to the midle of the flame and the free piece of wire to the left or right of the lighter so you don't burn you fingers while soldering, enjoy.
