I used to do little upholstery work. I had to redo the folding rear seat on the golf cart. I bought 3/4" marine plywood at a major hardware store. I bought online a piece of medium density foam and a roll of black marine vinyl. Inserts. This stapler worked great. Remember to do this every day before the first Use to have a drop of oil in the air intake. I have fired dozens of staples. Not a single misfire. The trigger is very sensitive and very responsive. The stapler is light.
