    I bought a skirt for a job interview and was in a panic when the zipper wouldn't stay up. Thank you so much for this clear simple video!!

    I just did it right now.. and it worked!!! You just have to be patient adjusting and pressing until you get it right.
    I’ve been suffering for almost half a year with my loose down zipper jeans, don’t even want to throw them away because it is one of my fave. Thank you so much to the one who made this video. You are so brilliant!!! Hoping for more amazing tips🌸

    A miracle of modern science, great tips and wonderful close up action.
    I hate it when the tab gets stuck in the down position as it nestles into a fabric "pocket"

    • @tsbrownie
      @tsbrownie  9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      +Craig Nehring Thanks. Yeah, me too. There needs to be a zip pull extractor. Maybe a large red "T" handle labeled "escape". OK, that's too much but...

    Thank you 🙏 I used your video and just repaired the slider on my favourite Rab zip up 🤗 It’s a different zip to your jeans one. I applied your principles and used a pair of pliers to squeeze the sides of the zip slider together. 😊

  • @dublinvids5146

    My Superdry jacket zipper was somewhat different and didn't have any parts that moved on the outside, all was happening below the middle piece, and the two bits that we see here holding the middle piece were not there either and so I just squeezed each end of the brass middle piece a little and it was the same, squeezed both ends again only with a little more pressure and it was the same and then after the third squeeze it now works as new! Cheers for the video.

    Hola. Te cuento que vi muchos videos intentando SABER EL MOTIVO que origina que el sierre de baje y como solucionarlo, pero no son mas que una lastimosa PERDIDA DE TIEMPO, ya que TODOSSS solo hablan de burdos "trucos" sin explicar un apice de la razon por la cual sucede este hecho... SALVO VOS EN TU VIDEO!!!... x lo cual te felicito por la excelencia de tu video y solo me queda decirte... MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!... Desde Argentina te dejo un abrazo

    • @tsbrownie
      @tsbrownie  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      "Hello. I tell you that I watched many videos trying to KNOW THE REASON that causes the saw to go down and how to solve it, but they are nothing more than a pitiful WASTE OF TIME, since EVERYONE only talks about crude "tricks" without explaining the slightest reason why. which this fact happens... EXCEPT YOU IN YOUR VIDEO!!!... for which I congratulate you for the excellence of your video and I only have to tell you... THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!... From Argentina I leave you a hug"
      Hola. Hice un reportaje en la escuela primaria sobre Argentina (y los gauchos). ¡Desde entonces quise verlo! Parece un lugar hermoso. Tal vez algún día.

    • @tsbrownie
      @tsbrownie  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you. If I remember, this was taken with a lumix gx7 at 1k. I now use a lumix gx8 at 4k. At higher resolution you need a lot of light and I use both portable led video lights and regular house hold led bulbs. It was the lens that came with the camera plus a 2x closeup ring.

    Hi! What if the zipper doesn't have that part you just tighten up?

    • @tsbrownie
      @tsbrownie  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is a brass zipper? Some of the others, like nylon, are very different and this won't apply. There are also non-locking zips which don't lock.
