In Response To: Tools: Length of staples (Simon)

i just layed my first two strips yesterday.

i am using a craftsman electric it is 15 years old but works very well. 9/16 staples are the longest that will fit. I had to use brads on a few forms anyway.

the stapes pull out very easy from cedar, so i wanted the longes to have more bite to the form.
