The're eisier to remove, if you only need temporary stapling. Denny ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Ussery To: Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2003 1:43 PM Subject: [OT]: Staplers Hi! Quick "hump-day boredom" question... Why the heck do many staplers have the flippable strike-plate, so you can have the prongs of the staple go outward??? I've tried it this way a couple of times, and the prongs never crimp down as well, and they tend to get caught on stuff and lift up. I'm sure there's some extremely valid pre-historic reason for this, but I have know idea of what it is... Anyone? :O) - Robert -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
