Members GrampaJoel Posted October 28, 2009 Members Report Posted October 28, 2009 Hi, I'm looking to buy a stapler to use on leather and I am not sure of what brand or type to buy. Can anyone help? I plan to use it on making strap keepers and such. I prefer good quality tools. I am in the USA if that helps. Thanks GrampaJoel Quote

Members GrampaJoel Posted October 29, 2009 Author Members Report Posted October 29, 2009 IF YOU CAN FIND IT, A "BOSTITCH" MODEL P6 WILL BE THE BEST ONE. Thanks Luke Hatley. I have looked at a lot of staplers but have not found a Bostitch model P6. Lots of other Bostitch models though. Is the P-6 you mentioned a model out of producrion? Thanks Quote
dirtclod Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I have a Neva Clog that is the best stapler i have ever used. Only bad thing is i can't find staples for it. I was told they went of business. So now i use a Ace heavy duty model # 82 . It works fine and you can get staples for it. Quote
Members tonyc1 Posted October 29, 2009 Members Report Posted October 29, 2009 IF YOU CAN FIND IT, A "BOSTITCH" MODEL P6 WILL BE THE BEST ONE. Luke, I have used a P6 for years and years and they are pretty reliable! Tony. Quote
Denster Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 The full model is the bostitch p6-8c. That is the heavy duty model that uses the heavy duty crown staples. You can google it or they have them on eBay. Best prices seem to be around $27 plus shipping. Quote
Denster Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Whoops! Correct last post model is P6C-8 Quote
Members CampbellRandall Posted October 29, 2009 Members Report Posted October 29, 2009 Here is another option LT-P35 P35 EXTRA HEAVY DUTY PLIER TYPE STAPLER Quote
Members GrampaJoel Posted October 30, 2009 Author Members Report Posted October 30, 2009 CampbellRandall Thanks for the reply. Does the stapler you mentioned leave a flat crown ? I am looking to make belt type of loops but want a flat crown when the staple is fixed in place. Thanks GrampaJoel Quote

Thanks GrampaJoel GrampaJoel, LT-P356 P35 3/8 inch STAPLES The P35 uses a 3/8" wide staple and will set a flat crown. Many of our customers use it for belt loops. Regards, Dan Naegle Quote
