Upholstery Stapler?

[MisterE 10+ year member]

What kind of stapler/staples do you guys use for carpeting boxes??

Specific sizes and/or where you got them from would be great. I cant really find anything locally that I know works well so if you have any retail store suggestions that would be great as ordering online will take too long. Thanks!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

As the others said should not have to use it to carpet boxes.
