Anyone have knowledge of C02?

I know this sounds totally useless, but I want to make a c02 powered staple remover. Ever try removing an industrial size staple from a 100 page docment? It hurt my hands. But an even bigger reason to make one is because it's overkill, especially if it works well...

Has this ever been though of or do you guys have any ideas on how I could make this.

ever try opening up the case to the 6 volt every lasting battery?
Beautiful but HUGE!

Just guessing, but I would think, someone, somewhere, makes an industrial sized staple remover, to remove the large staples you see in cardboard shipping boxes. It's mostly likely not CO2 powered, but uses a squeeze and some leverage.

Google around ... perhaps you can find one.

Office Supplies - Find great deals, lowest prices, and buy Office Supplies at Shopping.com ------ - top left kinda looks like it might work not sure how big it is in real life.

Berry's Staple Remover - Home -------- ahhh i like that one still manual thou

Stanley Bostitch Heavy Duty Staple Remover by Office Depot ----------Not sure if this is big enough but it sure looks like the easiest so far

I usually just use a screwdriver...

Knife to flip the prongs up, and then slide the knife under the staple on the top and twist, sharp end going away from paper, and its done? Or even using a letter opener? Don't see a use for CO2 power, really. Might end up ripping the staple through some pages before the prongs bend back up. That and you'd have to mess with either being tied down to an air compressor, or changing out CO2 carts all the time.

I was actually planning on using the c02 caplets rather than having a compressor on standby lol.

I appreciate all the links - but I still would like to pursue this useless overkill endeavor
