    I’ve been sewing for over 50 years and think nothing of replacing a zipper, but wow, the hours and agonies I could have saved if I’d known how to fix them like this! I want to go op shopping tomorrow to find some clothes with faulty zips just so I can fix them! Great video.

    Just saved me from taking my purse to The Cobbler. He looked at it and said I would need to replace the zipper pull and he would charge me $45 and have my purse for a week. This is so simple I couldn't believe it! Fixed it myself inside a 5 minutes. Thank you so much!

I bidded and won the jacket for $60, got it home and squeezed the zipper binder with pliers. Zipper works perfect and now I have in addition to my other jacket an $800 polo leather jacket that I won for $60, Thanks man!

    Outstanding presentation and very clear.
    I have been using this method for some time, but now I can explain clearly how. Got lots of sharing to do.
    If you have a zipper block that has become too weak or broken completely, snip the teeth tracks open at the very bottom, slide on a new zipper block, closing the zip and put a tiny blob of hot glue or similar where you have snipped the tracks to close it.

    That was a deliciously brilliant presentation of zipper-fixing. I LOVED that you defined every part of the zipper, and I could file these elements of zipper anatomy, easily in my brain. Now I know that when the throat of a zipper gets too wide, you have to take a pair of pliers and choke the darn thing. That was the most useful bit of knowledge I've come across this week (month, year?) Thanks, muchly.

    Holy crap!! Worked perfectly the first try! Like everyone else I always thought this meant the teeth were worn out and it was unfixable.

    Absolutely excellent demonstration! Up close and personal as well as thorough with necessary vocabulary; the silence helped me concentrate better. I would use a thin flat-head screwdriver rather than a knife which I might ruin or hurt something (like me). Where was this decades ago? I know; we didn't have internet back in the 1960s. All the stuff I threw away just because of a zipper really pains me now. I did save a few by removing the whole zipper and sewing in a new one; ten times the work plus the cost of the zipper.

    Thank you very much Science Sir!! This was a great tutorial! With so many repair shops closing as the older generation retires, we can’t find anyone to fix our small , but very irritating problems . Shoe repair shops and garment repair shops closed. I hate throwing away items that are still purposeful that need some adjustments to make them wholesome again. Our landfill and Mother Earth don’t need more stuff.
    I will now tackle my broken zipper on my bags …..🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 thanks to your willingness to share your knowledge.

      It's so crazy how I never could afford to have zippers replaced, so item would be thrown out, or upcycled. But, now I do know, thanks to you sharing your knowledge, & I'll be able to help my grandson with that problem.
      (Or me, if it ever happens again).
      It seems that it happens almost all the time with plastic type zippers.

She had ordered it and it came over from China and it's totally useless because of the zipper. I am so super excited that I saw this video now I can fix the zipper no problem. I thought I was going to have to take it out and replace it. Thank you thank you thank you for posting this video. I am now doing a happy dance.

    For a zipper separating only at a certain point, close the zip while gently pushing the fabric around the backpack/garment inwards. So normally you pull it a bit outwards to close it, now you push inwards while closing. After a couple tries it will work

They work even better when taken in large doses of the powerful kinds and mixed with a liquid called whiskey. The process is very easy, so I won't bother making a video about it. I legitimately need mine ( lifelong chronic pain and panic disorder can make you non-functional ) for their intended purposes, but taking double, triple the amount or more will ease a broken heart until you can hook up with someone to love ( and get your heart broken again.
