I suspect that someone could get that feeling from using homemade staples in a pre-made stapler, just the same as they could get that feeling from using a homemade paperclip on pre-made paper. (Paper’s a lot easier to make by hand than a stapler, though.)
On the other hand, hand-making a staple to fit in a standard stapler is a lot harder than hand-making a useable paperclip.
