A stapler, using normal staples that are driven into the paper
you are stapling using the power of a very small cartridge to
drive the hammer each time. Belt-fed cartridges allow
stapling in bursts of three, single shot or full automatic if
you're in a sanguine mood.
Then, after you have
spent many late hours stapling a large
brief of evidence for tomorrow morning's anti-trust trial, your
office floor is littered with neatly stacked piles of paper,
strewn with spent brass and smells of burnt cordite and
rendered metal.
Yippy-Ki-Ay.

Thanks for the link, [xenzag]. I was unaware you had
posted yours, as I can't see your ideas. |
|
|
I don't think it's sufficiently different from yours to
warrant it remaining. |
|
|
This idea will self-destruct in 24 hours. |
|
|
The ideas are different to my eyes. [xenzag] came up with a curved, gun-like magazine to hold the staples while this one is belt-fed with the crux of the idea being presumably the motive power delivering the staples. Your call though [UB]. |
|
|
Trying not to start a stapler arms race. |
|
|
Better not or I'll give you a paperclip around the ear. |

// start a stapler arms race // |
|
|
That would presumably imply long-arm
staplers
|
|
|
That would be Police staplers, [8th]. |
|
|
More like ze Gestapler... |
|
|
needs tracer staples to allow stapling in the dark |
|
|
Not too many, though. You don't want the enemy to
pinpoint your position too easily. |
|
|
It's be £100 more than the civilian version, would come out two years late, 80% over-budget and be completely incompatible with allied forces own military staplers, leading to a massive loss of data due to an open window and strong gust of wind. |

|
Need to set up an Anti-ballistic-staple interceptor in Poland. |

sp. Nailgun? I'm not sure if there are stapler versions... |
|
|
No, not a nailgun. There are any number of staple
guns used in the furniture and upholstery business,
that use compressed air. |
|
|
This one uses a belt of miniature ammunition, to
provide the force to depress the hammer. |
|
|
Do hammers get depressed? |
|
|
Analyst) Und zo, when did you start hitting tacks? |
|
|
Hammer) Doc, I'm a hammer, it's what we do.. |
|
|
Analyst) Hmm, a tack ting attention behaviour... <doctor scrawls in notebook with bad Austrian accent> |
