Broken zipper from huge bulge

[Bob Lives! 952]

The slide piece of the zipper on this Yukon Territory (available at Buc-ee’s) soft side cooler broke off. Fortunately they are honoring their product and sending me a new one, but I wouldn’t mind figuring out how the heck to fix this one and having two.

 

Is there a trick to getting a slider back on this thing? The original broke in half and is unusable, but I’m sure I can find something similar at Hobby Lobby. Just not sure how to actually get it back on. The ends of the teeth on both ends are not accessible, so you can’t just slide it back on.

Saw the thread title and thought the jokes write themselves on surly.

How'd you get the beans above the frank?

Complete side note, but the guys that own the company are really good dudes. It’s good to see them getting support in other areas of the country.

Each of these how to videos requires me to be able to access the end of the zipper. I don’t see how I can do that here:





I think I would have to cut the cooler which would destroy it.
