Staple Methods

Ah, the stapler, in my humble opinion one of the greatest inventions of all time. It only has one use, attaching sheets of paper together, well okay, you can also use it to shoot staples at people. But remember, that'll take out an eye!

Within the staple method section we discuss two techniques for binding, the first and most common is saddle stitch, the second is what I call side staple. Saddle stitch is a very simple, but very useful means of binding. Many publications, including magazines, use this method for that reason. Side stapling is not very common but it's just as easy.
