The zipper puller on my horse riding boots broke so I made this emergency replacement. They have two holes to thread 1mm wire through and a little slot on the back to twist the wire together. It can withstand a surprising amount of force!

I made them for my boots but they can of course also be used on other items like jackets, bags and backpacks

They are not necessarily meant as long term replacements, the wire will break at some point but more as a quick fix until a lasting solution (e.g. having someone repair it) can be implemented.

I printed them laying down so that the print lines are in the same direction as the force when you pull on it. I used supports (only touching buildplate).

If you decide to print them I would be grateful if you would post a make!

Print time was around 20-25 Minutes on my Ender 3 Pro for two pullers
