No… I’m not. Mostly Ace Fastener. The Scout, the Pilot, a long reach Pilot, an Aceliner. I have a Bostitch from the 20’s, back when it was still Boston Wire Stitching. One cool one is the Bates Model B, which is a wire feed stapler. It has a spool of wire, and it will feed it, cut it, bend it, and staple. All in one push.
Pretty boring, huh?
I actually have way more calculators than stapler. I’m a dull guy. Here are some of my favorites there.
It’s powerful, for sure. The only reason I bought it, though, was for calc 3. Most of the time, I prefer the TI-86. Custom menus that are one button away, a great unit convertor that is two buttons. Super easy to program for. And, it just looks good.
I’ve just been using 89s since I was in middle school. Always liked them. Always kept with them. My main calculator is a 20 year old 89 Titanium. Those things are built like tanks.
Though it may be a bit of a ship of Theseus. I’ve replaced the cover and battery cover 2-3 times, and I even replaced the tiny backup battery cover once.
Yeah, I didn’t get mine until halfway through college in like, 2008. By that time, I was pretty well-versed in the 86. I had a bunch of dog ears in the giant manual it came with. At some point, I still want to do the AGS-001 frontlight mod to it. People have taken the frontlight panel out of the original Gameboy advance sp and put it in the 86. I’ve been thinking about doing it for the last 20 years, should just do it.
I can’t find one of mine at the moment. I don’t think I copied over my stapler pic folder to my new phone. But I did find a decent video on how it works.
I’m not in this picture, and I don’t like it. What about stapler collecting?

Hmm… possible. But none of mine are red. And I’m not a huge Swingline 747 fan.

I don’t get it either, but the heart wants what it wants!
89 Titanium FTW!

I also really like the Casio FX-9750GIII.

Dang, now I feel like listening to ASMR of a nerd collecting calculators to fall asleep.
Maybe ASMR of calculator restorations.
Or modifications.
Sounds good to me. I already watch some people talk about their rubix cube collections for hours. This should do it.
No one that does Polish notation? You need a HP 10C series calculator
I have one of those, the 28S
The HP-41C is RPN! Top row. That’s a timeless classic!
I want a 15C, but those are more than I usually want to spend.
I genuinely think this is neat. That Bates Model B sounds cool, I’ve never heard of a wire feed stapler before now, do you have a pic of it?
ETA: this is a green flag collection btw
I can’t find one of mine at the moment. I don’t think I copied over my stapler pic folder to my new phone. But I did find a decent video on how it works.

Huh turns out I have seen a wire feed stapler, I just had not idea what it was. Very cool thank you for sharing.
Yeah, no problem!
I want to see the Bates Model B in action
Heyyy 😉
I dislike this.
(Edit: I downvoted, but I felt that wasn’t enough.)
What if all of the above?
Well green is yellow and blue, and red is just another primary color. If you mix it together you get a black flag and it means ye be a pirate matey!
