Make a Lighter Easier To Light

Today I am here with another everyday innovation. Today I will show you how to remove the child safety lock thing.
Notice any thing different? That's right the curved metal piece around the spark wheel on the left lighter is gone. The metal piece makes it so  you have to push down and pull back and hit the button all at the same time and tearing up your thumb in the process. So now I am going to show you how to remove that annoying piece of metal.                                          



First pry the two little metal tabs in the front with something flat and skinny like a small key this will release the front part of the metal lock. Then pull the other part of the lock out with needle nosed pliers as shown. 








Now your lighter will be much easier to light. There will be more sparks than usual ,but don't worry it won't hurt anything.
