Rare Vintage Lighter Restoration - Clinton Squeeze Lighter --- AF invention

I will restore this awesome Clinton squeeze lighter. There is some rust and damage from pitting but the mechanism works. Also the plating on the lighter is in need of a restoration. I really like this type of mechanical lighters because it’s always fun to take look and see what’s inside.
The restoration was quite straight forward. I had no issues with the disassembly, other than the fact that some parts fell out and I didn’t see where they came from. Luckily it didn’t take too long to figure out how to put it back together.
