Tony,

I buy mine from DX Engineering. Can get them in a bag of 100 I believe at
a reasonable price. You can find them at Lowe's or Home Depot in small
quantities in the Garden Center but they're awful proud of them based on
their price.

I like them as well. I was recently asked why I preferred "biodegradable"
staples since I just finished laying down 15 miles of radial wire under my
new 160 meter TX array and that's sort of silly to use "biodegradable"
with all that metal.

I simply told the person I was concerned for the environment and left them
with a confused look on their face!  :-))
