 Re: Relationships between tip opening, staple, etc

A trick my teacher used to do was use pliers to squeeze the top of the staple more closed, in the opposite direction than it would appear you should. That is, flatten the end of the staple that is parallel with the opening in the reed, a little bit (with the 'finished' reed on it) and the tip would do the opposite, open up. It worked, and could be one of those "if all else fails" things to try if you can't possibly make it any worse.
