Hey yours I like too. Looks different from what I've seen already. Guess the type of lighters matters alot. About mine I dunno I just used what you call "the most basic and cheap" lighters in my country. Think the guy that posted the concept used "Bic" lighters for his, not really sure tho.

no, definitely not Bic lighters, Bic lighters have more single-molded plastic pieces, the chunk of plastic that usually forms half the chassis is molded strait into the lighter fluid container. Thats why there's a Bic lighter in that picture of mine, because that was the first one i tried, when i took it apart, it had a bunch of weird and almost completely useless pieces.

Also, apparently when making these motorcycles, you can put the spring and flint back into that one plastic chunk when you put the wheels back on, and the wheels should spark when you roll it.

>.> also also, in my picture the glue still isnt dry, so thats what that white stuff is :p, it looks better now though.

Yeah I wanted to try that but accidently lost the flint when taking them apart :S
 
Wow this is cool, I'll make one too since I'm ill and I have plenty of time :D

I didn't use any glue, now I'll make a new-better one :D

Edit, made a new one with front and rear lights, speedometer, nice looking seat, and a gasoline trunk with a stopper :D

This new one i made doesnt need any glue to put together (just a drop of glue for that "headlight" in the front) and all the parts fit together amazingly well (its study and wont fall apart) I really like how the springs look on it.
