Thanks Buck. I love you like a brother! And we are going to fix the shipping price in your order, it’s freaking out

Thanks so much!

I’m glad you liked it! That’s for the insight and kind words I used to sell a thicker version that didn’t break but almost no one ever bought it!

You’re welcome Bob and I’m happy to oblige!

There are some pretty good ones that exists now. see comic skins.com. I've made several of my own too. I jokingly made some that were shaped like a coffin, lol

Awesome!

groovy!

Well if anyone can do it Edward, you can. I like to snake the staple around from the inside of the book if I want to reduce staple hole wear. Using a tool to ensure the correct staple spacing greatly reduces the effort required to get the staples back in.

Perfect, I love tips like that. Thank you!

Thanks Steve!

right because you will end up paying through the nose for shipping where you like!

@@ImmaculateComics haha, yes - haven't forgotten about it yet ( put only just filled my 2nd mix bottle ) so even with the losses from customs proping it I still have plenty

For myself I have never had anything other than a blue label. However I’ve heard different stories from others. I think the key may be to be absolutely certain you use the same staples and do not scratch them

The only real universal difference is that the large one is more difficult to break. But some people with larger fingers prefer the larger size as well. for most people, the standard capable staple tool is the best bet.

Thants a good idea! I will put it into my list of revisions! I hade a cute along the entire part previously but 1) it was very difficult to see the staple holes, 2) the part was snapping and breaking along the sore mark in my "rugged use" testing. and 3) it takes so much longer to laser etch our each part. 80% of the time to cute each part is the detailed cross-hath raster in of the line cutout for the staple. I don't want it to melt and pour into the hold I am trying to etch out so I perform 24 light ablative passes in different patterns to keep it cut out exactly right and to 0.1mm precision. you don't need to know all of that manufacturing information but I will try to find a way yo make that line longer. thanks for the ideas!

Thanks jay !

I’m working on a tool for your square bound books too!

@@ImmaculateComics Just ordered the staple tool and Tic Attack, and looking forward to the tool for the square bound book. I blew out the staple on my X-MEN 101 and fixed that, but the staples don't match since the original had curled staples. The one I fixed is now flat and looks really odd at the centerfold. Looks like that's gonna' change!

I think you are right. But its such a difficult item to design, but so easy to copy that I don't think I would ever be able to enforce the patent on it unless it was adopted by a huge company. some people have already blatantly stolen my images and videos to sell copies of my products. I've had no luck in stopping them. classystephanie.com/products/snapclean-comic-cover-ink-remover?_pos=3&_sid=fd1602082&_ss=r

The premium is 3/16" and the standard is ⅛". the standard is easier to make the staples fit into correctly because yo can adjust them through the other side of the hole easier but the premium are more durable and less likely to break when you are pressing them down hard. A few people asked me for a thicker one but I never had any through breaking them myself.

There are several reasons, one is to wash the cover jn a comic book washing machine. Another is the electro plush the staples. Yes another is to swap leaves!

Yes it can be used for that if the staple is the problem and it’s not a binding error.

I am starting to have a similar first-world problem, lol.

The link is in the description !

Hi and thanks for writing! The tools don’t come Teflon coated, I had to coat them myself with something called Xylan. It’s not truly necessary to have them Teflon coated if the tool is polished and smooth. Soon we will be offers not with the capable staple tool and a staple pry bar at the same time. This may be as soon as next week but I am traveling now and it may be a bit letter

@@ImmaculateComics awesome, I’ll wait to buy both from you!

@@ImmaculateComics I hope you had a great trip. Do you plan on offering the staple pry bar on your website soon? I'd like to buy a few different items but want to order them at 1 time to save on shipping.

@@breakbeatz309 yeah it should be available now, unless we sold Out already

And we love you for it!

Thats an impossible question to answer for every person in every situation. quite obviously there are a great many reasons to remove and replace staples in books

@@ImmaculateComics It’s the only reason I can think of! 😅 Great work… love the channel.

@@starchild6347 I see, that makes sense, In that case, you should probably be aware that a great many people do work on comic books and never submit them for grading at all. The idea of "fooling" someone necessarily implies deception or subterfuge. I've been doing this work on staples since before there even was a CGC and in my opinion the grading companies "just got here recently" even though its been 20 years. Here are some reason to use the tool, even when you aren't submitting for grading: 1) harvesting staples by year of book 2) electrocleaning staples 3) staple soldering and repair 4) rust removal from paper under a staple 5) cover cleaning 6) mold killing and removal 7) spine roll correct 8) pressing at high pressure to avoid staple pops while removing even the finest imperfections 9) left casting of pages 10) spine repair. These are the top ten reasons that I use the tool, myself. I like to use it especially to reduce work hardening and fatigue in the original staple while keeping the book whole and original. And I don't send any of my own PC books in for grading or slabbing. There are many more reasons too, naturally. Welcome to a larger world my friend, I hope this reply isn't too long!
