I'll second Tony on the stainless steel staples. Regular staples rust.
The staple gun is a wonderful invention! I can handle the canvas stretcher tool and the stapler, and do the whole thing myself (but not six foot canvases!).

I would assume that one purpose of the copper tacks is to look pretty for the client?
