Construction Staples & Staple Gun

[TheJay]

Hello there, I have spent a while now trying to find the type of staple gun which takes the long thin staples which are used for backing boards and securing wire mesh to hutches - look like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bostitch-...taples-13-200-pk-16S5-44GAL-NEW-/390470613257 & http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/565551786/50pcs_per_strip_90_wooden_staples.html?s=p

Can anyone please tell me what I should be looking for and how I can find it in the UK?

You will need something like this:

Try B&Q.

That is excellent. Thank you very much.

So what exactly is this type of feature called? Just wondered if a cheaper model would be available. How about: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-Expe...=sr_1_17?s=diy&ie=UTF8&qid=1356512619&sr=1-17 ?

I suggest you go for an electric nailer:

So something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Stanley-E...t=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item2c65d0f600 will take those staples I referred to originally?

These are the type of staples it will take:

Thank you for your help once again.

What's the cheapest electric gun suitable for firing those staples I referred to originally?

 

[TheJay]

So?

 

[TheJay]

Anyone?

The cheapest one is about 1.99 and its called a hammer.
