Thank you for this video! Super helpful. In your opinion, if you were to buy a pack of 100 invisible zips, which do you think is the most overall convenient length? 9", 12", or 16"? (sorry those are in inches).

After cutting off the extra length, can the teeth (from zigzag stitches to cut end) be removed? I find that they bunch up when making small coin purses.

Yes, You will need some pliers to cut them and pull them out. It's fiddly but may help with the bulk. x

Sadly you can't shorten open ended zippers, as you need the end bit to make it work. If the top of the open ended zip is hidden, you can just remove the metal teeth with pliers and neaten it from that end.
