Importance of the staple: was hammer felt (Renner Blues)

[Phil Bondi]

David Love states:

>>If you mean that the staple is important in high humidity areas to ensure
the hammer doesn't come apart, I'm not sure I agree.  My experience is that
if the glue joint fails, no staple will hold it together. >>

I have to agree. I live in a high humidity area. Staples or no staples, if
it's gonna fail, it's gonna fail.
