A very nice give-away.

Heres the story:I sent off for one of these from Woodlore recently and when it arrived i noticed it had a very small dent(and i mean small!).I contacted Woodlore and they very kindly and very quickly sent out a replacementHows that for customer service?!

Anyways, they suggested i pass it on.so here it is (a link anyway..)http://www.raymears.com/Bushcraft_Product/417-Solar-Spark-Lighter/

That is what the first person to post on this thread to say 'ohmygodineedthatNOW' will get.Clear?Freeeee!!!!

I have been assured that the tiny bit of damage will not affect it in anyway.

Oh well too late for him!

Believe they can be made from the bottom end of a pop can. They need to be polished so they shine - some people suggest toothpaste - dont think this is abbrasive enough though....?

I think it is probably more abrasive than chocolate which is also touted as a polishing compound

 

[Eric_Methven]

Auto Sol chrome polish should do it.

Thanks again Nige, the item turned up today. And what a day for it to turn up too, a bright sunny day. I was out in the garden trying it as soon as I got home...hee hee!
Have yourself a good few points from me too.
Also, a credit to Woodlore for replacing an item with such minimal damage.

I only contacted Woodlore to mention it and they sent the replacement!Cheers.
