Office Product Props: What's Out There

[RedTwoX]

I'm a few more coats of red paint and two white stripes away from having a replica of the red Swingline 646 stapler from "Office Space" (Thanks again to SSDesigner for the Swingline decals :thumbsup ). That's had me wondering: What other office product props are out there? Any suggestions? I'm looking for things like the red stapler, i.e. cheap and relatively easy. I have enough big, time and money consuming projects already, thank you very much. Are there any noteworthy pens, pencils, staplers, staple removers, whatnot that I can track down for a must-have-prop-geek-desk-set?

A run was done of Office Space Initech mugs - like Lumbergh always seemed to carry.

Other than my red Swingline model 646 (total geek, I know), I can't really think of any office products that were prominent enough to be collection worthy. But I'm sure others can.

I wanna say one of the paper props threads had the TPS report. You did get the memo about the new TPS report coversheets...right?

Yep, I grabbed that some time back.

Hey Muttley! Go grab yourself a 646 and bring it over. I think I have an extra set of Swingline stickers :cool

I might just do that! I like the swinglines, they don't bind up as much :lol

and 6 months later...I finally have THE stapler. not A red stapler..THE red stapler. :love

Thanks to Red2X hooking me, I finally got around to making one, but I REALLY wanted a matching burnt one from the end of the movie. I had to have some Swingline decals made up since I don't think these are offered anymore. While I was at it I went ahead and incorporated the pinstripe into the decals. seems to work perfect!

thanks again to Red2!

I am going to put the extra decals up in the JY for pretty cheap, those some red paint and a $7 stapler you have yourself one neat prop!

So, I've just joined the cubicle-farm masses. Any other office product props out there? Doesn't have to be from Office Space.

Actually, in the realm of staplers, anyone seens a Mighty Mouse stapler like DiNozzo has on NCIS?

 

[DarthMarmalade]

Those staplers are brilliant!

The only thing leaping to mind right now in the way of office-y props is the DeskMobile from The Nude Bomb (aka The Return of Maxwell Smart). I'm sure Max had other desk equipment from the tv series.

I imagine James Bond had an array of pens and such over the years as well.

I need to know the brand of stapler that is the mighty mouse stapler.... It is a true prop! not commercially made from what i can tell in my searching thus far!

 

[nerftheherder]

No bites on this yet??? I have no leads and trust me...looking at staples catalogs and checking on line sucks... Seen more staplers then I care to ever again... Just need a brand. Paint and stickers/decals are easy
