Some good info there. I've used the pencil trick which works.

Great tips! I've never been able to fix a zipper, though

Very nice article, but I'm just not that good when it comes to zippers, usually most of mine tend to break or not work as well. I recently got a pair of jeans that the zipper falls down after a bit, which is both annoying and embarrassing.

I tried today by watching on Youtube, but the XIP broken. I have to install another piece of that zip machine so that it works again. I see all those 11 methds, but he didnt discussed about a new one machine.

I've fixed a few zippers, but sometimes it's better to replace the zipper altogether, which is quite difficult on some items. I have a favorite pair of shorts that I put in a new zipper and it works so much better than the old one! It was a struggle though because I'm awful at doing that kind of thing.

Personally, I have always found fixing zippers very challenging to do and as a result I've failed at it woefully. Great tips by the way.
