How do you guys fix your electric staple guns so they don't drive the staples any deeper than a staple rake/comb will pull them? I got tennis elbow last season pulling staples.

There was a demo at the FTA and he had just taken an old fork, cut off most of the handle and used a hose clamp to secure it to the front of his staple gun to hold the gun up far enough to get his staples to drive in but not all the way.


Hoope this helps.
