0 Ballywannabe Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Wot he said. The long nose makes things very easy. Keep the pressure down unless you really want to bury those staples! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 poidapoida Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 I can't see any Australian suppliers would you happen to know any? The post for US suppliers is the same as the gun @wiredoug @Ballywannabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rich Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I use one I got from Bunnings, 2 actually, Ryobi, one for short staples, and one for long narrow ones. you could put some double sided tape on the back (not vital) and buy some staples the same width, to match existing holes and hammer them in. unless you want to keep up the appearance of staples you could also use tacks, drawing pins etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ballywannabe Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Ouch! I see what you mean. Mine was $AU105 including postage a couple of years ago when our dollar was stronger. You may not need a long nose stapler for doing the backbox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 poidapoida Posted November 21, 2019 Author Share Posted November 21, 2019 I use one I got from Bunnings Went a got the Ozioto from Bunnings last night just to test it @ $28 it would be no loss. Worked fine, has wider crown staples but does the job. You may not need a long nose stapler for doing the backbox? A few tight spots but got them all in. Will keep an eye foe a Unicatch one though, it'll be good to use on the pile of furniture I have been wanting to fix up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
