Next step is how to secure and prevent the new slider from dropping off.
Hence it is very critical to secure two zip teeth part by sewing or use a end metal end device.
Shown here is use thread to sew the outer leather to the zipper part. This done to ensure the zipper is secure properly to the bag side.
Look at some old project which need to improve on. One is the TV remote control casing.
The velcro was loosen as the part attached on the plastic sheet have poor adhesive surface. Repair by use thread to hold it in place.
