MaxTite Pine Wood Shims, Professional Contractor Grade (Box of 120)

They are perfect for all my crafting needs

great for crafts

was exactly what i needed for my project

I bought this box of shims for my craft projects. They are just perfect for what I needed. They came early. Wrapped well ,good thickness to them. I will order from this seller again!

The price was great for how much I got. They worked great and didnt split like some do.

What is there to say, they’re shims. Exactly as expected, very uniform, and I’ll use them fir a variety of things.

I use wood shims to help set rocks securely in a vise before slabbing them in a slab saw. I had been using what my local hardware store usually had - always picking up 10 or 20 at a time because they get broken or lost in oil or stolen by the gnomes. I had been using Nelson kiln-dried wood shims for years because thats what my local store always carried... They work but they dont have a lot of give to them and often break instead of bend. I am sure they have lots of other great functions, but now that Ive found these Pine shims, I dont think Ill ever use anything else.... The point of using shims in the vise is to protect your vise pads - so the stone digs into the shims but not into the pads. These have GREAT bite. You can really see the rock sinking into the shim when tightening the saw. And I love how you get 120 for just $22. This is the brand Im sticking with from now on.

Looks like this box was stored under a leaky pipe in the warehouse. Moldy, crusty shims. I nearly passed-out when I inhaled the active mold spores that wafted from this box. Amazon choice, indeed.

Wood is good quality. Thickness very good.

Im using them for crafts. They are smaller than I thought but they work for what Im doing.
