[QUOTE="James s, post: 12887, member: 766"] Thanks Tristan , I must admit I was a bit hesitant in posting as prostaplers seem too get treated like flat earthers or antivaxers. I would be interested to hear how the "old school staplers" are getting on ie pinnacle,Glynn,ikwezinz and particularly stoney , otto and philb. Is the pinkcat still using toilet roll cores? Are overboard staples still a thing? Can u still access the original forum?.Humidity is a interesting topic, here in coastal Otago we are plagued by a nor'east flow in spring which saturates everything yet the staples still seem 2 work. I reckon u get 8 good weeks out of a gibtape staple but it definately varies btwn hives. I personally think they are a superior product compared too the cardboard staples ( sorry Russell) but the cardboard ones work out cheaper and are less time consuming and the soaking kit is pretty nifty. Also I think Lyson markets pre made staples in Australia and the U.K. But I have no idea about the ox/ glyce ratio in them [/QUOTE]
