It is nice to know there are more like me, but I'd still love to get me hands on staples that would work in it. Like Bruto from Fairmont, mine has the Bell System imprint imbedded on it, and I cannot find any staples that will work. I have been searching for years! If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear about it. "A company in Brooklyn" doesn't quite cover it, and there's always the problem about it having the Bell System parameters.

It had a few staples in it, which I used, and it worked well until I ran out. Some time later, I lucked into a box of Heller staples, and was surprised to find that they did not fit through the gun. I finally determined that the Bell system version must have been modified for slightly thinner or narrower staples, by using a slightly narrower guide plate (I don't know its proper name) at the firing end. I filed it out, and all is well, but it was definitely too narrow to accept the conventional Heller staples.<br /><br />I just thought that might be useful information if anyone comes across a Bell version.bruto from vermontnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709282873391683241.post-6722502275800473912009-07-19T02:15:39.010-04:002009-07-19T02:15:39.010-04:00For what its worth I purchased my Heller out of NY...For what its worth I purchased my Heller out of NYC back in the '60's and confidently recall the vendor: Fitzgerald ElectroMechanical Co.

I used it continuously in my alarm company & very hard. Years later when I needed more staples I located them at a company that was located in Brooklyn, N.Y. Along the way I acquired another Heller stapler for an employee who unfortunately did not provide the same care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
