lighter case + Bottle Opener + Fidget spinner + Poker tool

I had already worked on the Bic® version of this figit spinner lighter case, but the new ask of the client was to create a version for Clipper® lighters, and include a multi-tool. Full ID process and creation of production-ready CAD files.

Process [ABbreviated]

Before landing on the clipper lighter the decision was in the air between Bic® and Clipper®.

During this stage, we decided that the multitool should be only one removable part.

After deciding on the Clipper® lighter challenges remained:

  • Contain the multi-tool

  • Find the center of mass on average fluid fill

  • Stop the tool ejection during fidget-spinning

  • Reduce injection molding complexity

Given the extremely small size of the article, finding the correct multi-tool geometry was crucial. In particular, balancing function and strength.

A debossed strip was also added to the base to make accessing the multi-tool easier.
