Does anyone know a source to rent or buy cheaply a fine wire stapler that's used for the staples in RVs for paneling? I have scoured the internet and found that a stapler for the size staples used for the luan paneling in our camper (3/16" crown 22 ga) runs about $200 (senco?). I have a compressor so that's not a problem, and it doesn't appear that anyone sells a manual version that I've found. The staples used in ours are 5/8" long.

1 Cheap: Harbor Freight maybe.2 Rent, don't you have a equipment rental business near you? We have several included one called united rental which maybe national in scope3 Use something else: use torx head screws and sink the heads below the surface.4 Check Amazon: Hitachi. My one experience with Senco did not leave me impressed.

I have the Harbor Freight and it has performed flawlessly, unlike some of my purchases there.

x3 on Harbor Freight or some of the Chinese staplers on Amazon. You can rent one but usually the rental price is more than the cost of a cheap stapler.

Check Amazon, sometimes it's cheaper/easier to buy rather than rent a tool. Especially if you may use it in the future.I bought an inexpensive WEN brad nailer, it does a good job. I don't think they make staplers.I have a Senco framing nailer. It worked great but, not very long. :(

Harbor Freight 1/4" crown stapler for $15 with a coupon. I've run over two full boxes of staples thru it in the last few years and it has performed flawlessly.
