what kind of stapler/size do you use?

Hi all, I have to staple up mh leather pockets on my home table, and Brunswick says to use 1/2" long, but no specification on width. I am curious to hear what the mechanics use as I'll buy an electric stapler to do the job. I saw a decent one at sears that uses heavy duty narrow crown staples for a fair price of $30.

Thanks,

Ryan

I drill a hole in the tabs and use a 1/2" panhead screw rather then staples.

Ryan,
You can find these at Home Depot. They work really well for screwing pocket webbing.

Pat,

I use the same, the most effective attachment I've found so far!

And a whole lot better then staples. :grin:

Thanks guys, that's perfect. I especially like it because you can reassemble after a recover and have the webbing in the same spot, without having to realign them.
