A Useful Little Stapler

I saw this stapler featured in a longer video the other day and wondered why I'd never seen one in the stores. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to staple a booklet but didn't want to pay money for a longer one just for those rare "booklet moments."



(After watching this, I looked everywhere on the Internet and could only find these for sale on ebay. They're made in Japan, but I wonder why they're not more readily available. I think they may need special staples, but then so do those super small staplers. If anyone knows why these aren't widely distributed, I'd love to know the reason).

Years ago I needed to staple together a booklet. I took it along to my local library & they had just the thing. It was a one off thing. I would not need to buy their super stapler.

It's true that most people wouldn't need something like this often (I occasionally do promo material, so there have been several instances where I needed a booklet stapler), but what I liked most about it was that most of the time it's just a regular stapler. A bit like getting two staplers in one.

I have the giant stapler for stapling up to 60 pages (I think) at a time, plus the regular staplers, but I've never seen a swivel one before! What a great idea! If it could extend up to a foot away, I think that would be useful too.

Yes, I'm not sure what the actual size is, but a bit bigger would be better.
