yeah well my dad is goin to let me borrow his digi cam so i will b able to show all u chicks and dudes wat i am on about lol! ill try and briefly explain it now though. step number one~find a lighter (not a zippo but one of those cheap throw away ones) and rip the metal guard of it Step number two~push the lever that adjusts the lighter fluid up and so it does not make contact wit the inner cog of the lever Step number three~push the lever all the wat bac to the lower setting, making sure it does not pull the inner cog wit it Step number four~pull the lever down(now making contact wit the inner cog) and push forward
now just do this a few times and you will have tweaked you lighter!jus be carefull of the big flame it can b dangerous also it wastes fuel faster:D
gud luck

One time when I was at a lan party I was tweaking lighters, and I tweaked my lighter and left it on the table. And one my friend was recording shit with his new digital camera. So anywyas he just so happens to be recording when one of my drunk friends picks up my lightere while I am turned. He lights the lighter and scorches his eyebrows. I will have to see if I any of my friends still have the video.

hey dude, id really like to see pics of your computer if you have some, the pics of sillyness above are somewhat amusing however my 12 year old saw the pics and tried it herself and almost cought her sister on fire. not funny, kids are very impressionable and do not need these extra ideas in their head.
I'm only one parent out of many on this board and i'd like to think they feel the same way.
thanks!:)

Now Synth, that is a prefect example of your kids learning from your mistakes. I remember a few incidents involving you, me and some oxy/act. I also remember having to pick out a large piece of plastic that was embeded in my chest. :)
Playing with fire/explosives is very, very dangerous. I know from painful, first hand experience. It is in the OT forum and I can understand Synth's concern for the younger members. The hairspray trick can backfire causing you to be holding a nice little grenade.
I understand your interest in fire but we're more interested in cooling things down here at LN. We don't need to see things on fire..... well execpt maybe some old 486 boxes and all the copys of Windows ME in existence. ;)

Take poor unsuspecting lighter thus: http://67.10.210.195:91/virginlighter.jpg
And mod it by moving the placement of flame adjuster on adjuster wheel thus:http://67.10.210.195:91/modlighter.jpg
And get the results thus: http://67.10.210.195:91/moddedlighter.avi
Download then play....divx encoded.
