: You should be OK with the electric Arrow (free is good), and if you
: change to an air stapler later, the stock of T50-type staples
: will fit the new gun.
: Manual works well, if you are looking for hand exercise.
: T50 (wide) staples are what I use; I've got a narrow crown stapler
: and definitely wouldn't use it on a strip project. Narrow crown
: staples make bigger holes and are a lot harder to remove.
: Get a few different staple lengths and do some experimenting. The
: material you use for your forms can/will affect the penetration.
: NB- you can vary the driving force of the electric gun by
: more/less downward pressure .

Free and cheap is my motto. I bought a narrow crown stapler today and took it back thinking it would create a big hole and a beyotch to remove staples. Free will be here tomorrow and I can commence ta strippin
