By now, you should have mastered the basics of stapling: the gentle touch, the firm grasp, and the satisfying thunk of the staple going home. But what happens when you're faced with the impossible? When the paper just won't cooperate and the staples just won't hold?
In this chapter, we'll delve into the dark arts of stapling by hand. From hand-stapling for the truly dedicated to the art of stapling with your feet, we'll cover it all. Because, let's be real, sometimes you just need a little extra oomph.
In this section, we'll explore the underlying physics of stapling. From staple velocity to paper tension, we'll get to the bottom of what makes a staple go thunk in the first place.
What happens when you're stapling in space? Does the zero-gravity environment change the game? We'll discuss the challenges and opportunities of stapling in the cosmos.
