sunshine 2 #1 June 8, 2006 So on staplers you can adjust the plate thingy to have staples normal, or to staple in the weird way where the ends stick away from the middle of the staple. What is the purpose of this? Please help my confusion end... ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

brierebecca 0 #2 June 8, 2006 Presumably when stapling large stacks of paper, a more shallow staple groove will provide a more secure hold.

sunshine 2 #8 June 8, 2006 QuoteSo they can be pulled out easily ... for temporary stapling. That can't be it. It's harder to pull the staples out when they're facing out. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

Broke 0 #17 June 8, 2006 Save yourself the trouble and get yourself an electric stapler. They rock the shit out of old fashioned manual staplers, and they don't jam as frequently.Divot your source for all things Hillbilly.

My super psychic staple sense tells me it's to increase traction for those times when it is necessary to leave the stapler on the desk and press firmly with one hand whilst holding the stack of papers with the other.

Sebazz1 2 #21 June 8, 2006 My days of stapeling and three hole punching are nearing their end as I am doing less and less actually paper pushing and filing but my three hole punch is staying with me for posterity and memories regardless. I could care less about my stapeler but I was always curious why they had the outward function. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
