Awesome Wally Valued Member United States 176 Posts	Posted 05/13/2011 08:54 am I also use small pliers to flatten the staples and have been happy with the results. Report this Post to the Staff
Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 05/13/2011 09:17 am I have a cheap (pretty cheap) flat clinch stapler that has replaced my regular stapler and mini travel stapler. It took a while to break in as sometimes staples came out crooked and I would have to destroy the flip just to get it out again. It hasn't done that in a while so I think it had to do with the thickness of the cardboard, but now the stapler "knows" its purpose. It'll save your pages from overstretching and if stacked won't take up as much room nor stractch other flips. Lesson learned: don't cheap out on staplers or anything mechanic. In the long run it'll save you frustration. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 05/13/2011 10:43 am I used to use staples on 2x2's but to many accidents, scratches, torn plastic, etc. The flatter you make them, the more difficult to remove them. A roll of 3M clear tape will last a long, long time to seal the edges of any flip. No air can get in that way also. Mentioned this before. Take a flip you stapled and put to your mouth and blow. If you can get your breath to go through, so does air. May not be perfect but taping 3 sides really does keep out stuff. Report this Post to the Staff
