zippos neverending project 5b

[zippo855]

This thing has been a long time since i started to "freshen" it up. main thing thats taken so long with this project is i decided to do some painting on this. did all the proper steps to get good adhesion of paint on the parts. deanodized, "keyed" surface, adhesion promoter, etc.
Finally have started making some good progress over the past week. its really starting to shape up. But still have a small piece or 2 to finish up. But on to some pics.
















been clearing over the past day or so. just waiting on this clear to dry then polish and clear some more. anyway, heres some update pics.





Lots of new parts to put once once paint is done and I start assembly.
comments and questions welcome. Thanks.
