A real "Why didn't I think of that?" idea! Super simple but really effective. Thanks for sharing!

[@Vodkanipples]

great idea for first aid kit. if your hand is injured this will be a big help. the best ideas are the ones that make you say "why didn't I think of that " this is definitely one of those.

[@survivalkraft]

Haha! You are too kind! Thank you.

[@paulhughes3961]

I think that's one of the best ways to do zipper pulls.

[@MasterK9Trainer]

That's cool, but it's like another "thing" to adopt. But then again, it keeps thing interesting. And it gives me a reason to play with heat shrink tubing and.... fire. It's fun to melt stuff and watch it change shape. I already see another video by you on another style of zipper pulls. I'm going to look at that now. Take it easy Dude, I always like your projects and videos.

[@SandTguy]

Cool DIY ... i should try this without using a lighter... I should be able to do this in the sun.

[@survivalkraft]

If you can do it, do it! Haha! I would like to see that!

[@88spolen]

Just so everyone knows, if you make loops like these for your zippers, you risk them catching on random things and opening/breaking your zippers, especially if you're using them for a hiking pack.

[@NewbTactical]

explained very well.

Zipper pull loops are faster when its cold and your wearing thick gloves; no need to take a glove off to open a zipper.

luck your finger before touching the melted plastic, and it won't hurt
