Description
One of the ends of my backpack's zipper broke, allowing the zipper to zip all the way off! This little trinket clips on to the zipper tracks, preventing the zipper from unzipping too far!
I made both a version that clips on, and one that has some little slots to allow stitching it in place.
Really, though, the clip is good enough in my case.

Instructions
Put that zipper back onto its track things!
Then clip the ends with this, so it stays on the right track.
Then get tempted to sew an extruder gear onto the bag while you're at it.
Oh, and don't forget to print it out =)

Have you by any chance thought of a design that allows you to open the zipper fully, like with a jacket. I lost the endstop with mine but I cant have the zipper permanently engaged.
I hadn't, but thinking on it now, it wouldn't be that hard to do. If you were to modify my design, I'd recommend taking the smaller version, and removing the arms from one of the halves. Print one copy, sew it in place, and let the other "track" of the zipper hang free, maybe?
My design is more intended for things like backpacks, so your mileage may vary.
