What staples to use for an old stapler without size requirements?
Q. I found a really old stapler in my attic but don't know what staples it uses. It says "use only A-910, A-912 or A-914 staples". I doesn't say anything about the size. I think the brand is Apsco. Any ideas on what to use? Thanks

A. A-910?sounds like a very small piece of paper to me.Maybe it's a small stapler used for a small paper.

Where can I buy the short black staples and stapler to repair a bike seat?
Q. I've searched every hardware store and craft store in town and no one sells anything smaller than 6mm staples which are much too long. I've searched online but found absolutely no products. I can either buy staples and a stapler or two new bike seats. I'd prefer the former. So no one has ever tried to repair a bicycle seat by re-stapling it? I find it hard to believe.

How to staple two pages without stapler?
Q. Sounds stupid but I wish to master this art. Whenever a stapler isn't available, I get pressured to staple pages by folding one corner. Unfortunately I don't know how to do it so it isn't slack or it elastic. How should I fold the corner?

What are the two positions on a stapler used for?
Q. Trying to get a little history on the standard paper stapler and who invented the anvil that makes the staple go outward instead of inward. And then the why of the outward position, thanks.
Asked by mmmar@sbcglobal.net - Thu Jan 8 07:40:46 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. An "Inward" stapling is used for permanent attachments. An "Outward" stapling is used for more temporary attachments. It's easier to remove and often acts as a pin more than a staple.

How do I fix my Swingline stapler?
Q. Okay, so I let my teenage son use my stapler (that was my first mistake). But now the top part of the staper (the part that contains the staples) is stuck and won't come down. I've tried wrapping my fingers around the metal part and pulling down but that won't work. So how do I fix this? I'll give best answer to whoever can help me. And I'll answer any and all of your questions. Please, I'm desperate and don't want to buy a new stapler.

Does anyone know how to fix a jammed Swingline heavy duty stapler?
Q. It ran out of staples so we took the spring out and put more in (not too many), and now it seems to be jammed. When I push on it to staple something, it goes down to the point where I assume the staple is supposed to come out, and then nothing. We've taken the staples out and checked for jammed staples, and didn't find anything. Maybe it's just time for a new one?

Can you hang wallpaper with a stapler?
Q. I want to hang wallpaper, but dont want the hassle of removing it when I'm ready to take it off.
Asked by T Renee C - Sat Jan 6 09:17:50 2007 - - 12 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It can be done, but the weight of the paper, will eventually cause it to tear. Plus you have to repair all the holes from the staples, when you remove it. If you decide to hang it in the normal way, remember, that there are several solutions that are made to remove wall paper. They can be mixed with hot water, and sprayed on using a garden sprayer. After ten minutes the paper comes down, fairly easily. I've done it this way, and know that it works.

What is the purpose of the other side of the stapler?
Q. A regular staple curves in, toward itself. What's the purpose of the one that curves out?
Asked by downrightdoomsday - Sat Nov 17 22:06:40 2007 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments
A. When you rotate the metal base around so you may staple with the legs folding out, it is called pinning. It works like a safety pin to hold objects in place temporarily. For instance you can use it to staple up the hems on your skirt or pants prior to sewing. The main advantage is that the ends of the stapler do not dig into the material like they do when you use the stapler the normal way.
